Question What Should My rwhp and tq be in 2002 SS?

I have a 2002 Camaro SS 335hp(CME) package stock. It has a 6spd. 317rwhp stock, and 331rwhp with lid and KN.

Since then I've added:

Pacesetter LT Headers
MSD wires
ORY
P&P Throttle Body
FTRA
+
Lid and KN from earlier
and TUNED!

What kind of rwhp does that sound like guys? Thanks

Hard to tell. You made some great improvements with just a lid

I would say around the 360 mark once you get it tuned.

Those were my DynoJet #s hahaha. I had it done on a Dyno4mance one that rates it way less but I did a conversion %age wise and those were the #s I came up with. I still think I suck at driving it. I'll get it back out at the track later on.

Once you get the ported throttle body and headers on you will see a little more gain if you get back in there and mess with the fuel a little bit.

Hi guys, I have been reading on other threads on other websites and there are people runing 325 rwhp thats about 370 HP from skock 2002 SS's they said it was because of the ls6 manifold and other little bits they did for the 02 SS models,Dont take offence SLP Camaro guys BUT all that about the SLP Camaro having 345HP and the standerd SS with 325HP is BULLS**T they all had the same HP, SLP parts did not make a diffrence to the standerd SS it was just ADVERTISEMENT for SLP was just .

Evidence?

Yea guys, I'm just trying to measure how close I should be to the power of a terminator. I'm going to lay the smack down on one of them one of these days. Thanks for the responses

Once you do the stuff you listed in your first post you should be able to run with a stock Cobra. You may not make quite as much power as a stock Cobra, but your weight advantage will put you right there. I think it would be a drivers race with a stock one with the edge going to you.

Good luck finding a stock one though! Just a simple set of mods like intake/exhaust produces huge gains on those cars. And a pulley tune and you'll probably get smoked with just bolt-ons unless the guy has problems driving (which is possible).

What you need is a nice head/cam combo and a 100-150 shot. That will give you a good fighting chance with most (notice I said MOST) any Cobra you will run into. It seems that the average twin screw Cobra has problems dipping below mid 10's

FTRA will be here monday.
P&P Throttle Body... I'm trying to get one(great job and cheap)
all that other stuff is already done, Including my tune.

Those guys on ls1.com don't think I could take a stock one. We'll see. No doubt a modded one would leave me but I'm getting there
