I hate to ask this but how powerful do you think my car is?
I just got a '01 SS. Here's what it has: Factory ram air, SLP lid, K&N filter, Hooker LTs, OR/Y, Hooker Catback, 3.23 gears, Falken ziex 274/40, its been tuned and it flat out hauls *** so I'm pretty sure it was done right, oh and by the way it's an auto. I'm thinking I may have about a 40-50hp gain from all this crap. I think the hp is in the 370 range. If I give it (I guess) 4/5 throttle halfway through first gear and then hammer it all the way down it hooks decently so what do yall think I could get out of it in the 1/4??? I'll be embarassed if I run slower than 13.5 but some people around here say it's a 12 second setup easy... I don't care if this turns into a flame war, I don't care if your responses are good or bad I just want to hear one from everybody who reads this ok. Atleast somebody tell me what you seriously think the power levels are up to and what time I can run when the conditions get a little better (100 degrees or more plus humidity here).

I'd guess 340-350rwhp.
300-310rwhp stock + 20rwhp for LTs/ORY + 5-10 lid + 5-10 catback + 5-10 tune. I'd also guess that a 13 flat is well within your grasp with a 12 possible if you are a very good driver in good conditions.

My guess is around 330rwhp being an auto. Mid to high 12's with a good run.
