Default 480 RWHP at 5000 rpm........................

Any guesses?

This is what my car dynoed but the factory fuel pump started losing psi right before 5000 rpm (I think it lost 3psi), then right after 5000 rpm it quickly lost 10psi.

What are your guesses on my total RWHP with the high performance fuel pump?

Just curious.

I would have to say you have over 500rwhp, but w/out seeing the dyno graph.. I have no clue.. Get the intank or inline fuel pump and take her back to the dyno.. I am curiuos as well..

How much did it make at 4500 rpms?

I'll say 510rwhp at 6200.

I'll go with the 510 @ 6200 answer as well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> I hope so for you anyway.

I hope mine will come close to this as I am very anxious. We are going with a 240/240 .609/.609 on a 112 LSA with X-ER lobes. I already have an inline t-rex on mine and hope that will hold mine. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

480 rwhp @ 5000 rpm's is killer. That thing is going to feel sick fast. You could short shift and still outrun 85% of the cars on this board <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

There is definately 500+rwhp in the motor after 5500 rpms.....

Dang Dude <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Here I was happy to get +37x rwhp on a 9 to 1 A/F out of 6 1/2 - 7 cylinders <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />

Wicked fast <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I'd guess above 510rwhp at ~6200 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My Cartek 427 was making 492 at 5000 and hit a peak of 528 at 6100. There are a lot of variables that will affect the comparison, but you should be in that ballpark.

Still interesting though.
