Default VID: My basically stock T/A on the rollers!

This was at the annual NEPO Spring Dyno meet. For those that don't know, NEPO = North Eastern Probe Owners. My previous car was a Mazda MX-6 and MX-6 = Probe, so i've gotten QUITE involved in all things Probe-related. So yeah, that's the back-story.

The details?
Basically Stock 98 WS6 T/A. "Power" mods are an SLP lid and a Flowmaster muffler.

283.4 whp @ 5300 RPM
295.6 ft-lbs @ 4200 RPM
275+ ft-lbs from 2500-5400 RPM


And last but certainly not least, the video:

Suddenly i have this strange urge to buy a cam. Something about getting over 300 whp i think.

I'm thinking magnaflow is next. The Flowmaster was there when i bought the car. I added the lid.

As far as other boltons, i'm not too much a fan of most bolton mods, as they're generally a compromise in reliability, comfort, etc. To be honest, i'll probably cam it and call it done. Really, the car is plenty quick as it is.

I'm not planning on drag racing it or anything. Just looking for a fun street car. A mild cam would, in my experience, enhance that without exhaust leaks from headers, low alrenator output from underdrive pullies, etc etc. I guess i've just had horrible past experience with bolt-on mods and i'm trying to keep the same disaster from happening again.

i understand your concern about reliability.but a quality set of LTs will not leak,if they are installed correctly.it's been almost three years since mine were installed and i have no problems.to get the full benefits from a cam,you have to free up your exhaust.and i agree that with a good catback muffler,you will see over 300 rwhp.

As far as I know, it's the factory tune. I can't imagine the previous owner doing a tune just for a crap muffler. *shrug*

On the mod list after a magnaflow catback is an HP Tuner setup. Sure i'm not gonna have a whole lot of NEED for it, but i'm the type of person who wants to be able to play around with stuff like that. Expensive? Yeah. Better to just take it somewhere and have it tuned? Probably. But doing it yourself has an element of pride. And it's fun.
