Default $100 beat for 300hp or higher!

I just picked up a 2000 ss m6 with 43,xxx mikes with ram air slp lid, slp lm2 and I'm putting on a potz throttle body. My buddy bet me $100 that I will not put 300hp or more down to the wheels. I'm going to slow hawk for open house day to do a dyno run just to get base numbers. So do you guys think I just put $100 in my pocket?

Definitely depends on the dyno, but I would be surprised if you didn't. Being an M6 helps of course, but make sure it's running well. I always do a tune-up when I buy a new-to-me car anyway.

I'm going to do plugs and wire kit from ws6 project. My wires are fine but it is cheap enough. Clean the k&n filter, get the throttle body on with bypass and I think I will be good.

Ive seen some Mustang dynos read higher than some dynojets. I don't care for the whole "Mustang dynos read lower than dynojets" thing cause from what I've seen they will ALL vary to some extent more or less regardless of what kind of dyno it is. On average though with your mods through an M6 you should easily put down 300 unless it's an extremely extremely stingy dyno.

At Slowhawk dyno day last year there was a black ta with your same setup and it put down 325rwhp through a 6 speed. I'll see you there probably. I gotta see what mines got
