From what I have seen, they usually pull around 300hp. Take or give 5 or 10. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

I dynoed 290rwhp with a K&N and a flowmaster muffler. I have a few more horses now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

It was a "factory freak" if it dynoed anywhere near 300rwhp.

I did 295 *after* lid/filter & SLP aftermarket (uncrushed) "Y"...

Seems like the 98 A4 cars were about the lowest on the dyno from all I have seen.

My 98 TA A4 with lid, ported MAF and cat-back dyno'd 293 (corrected)

Don't know, but was maybe 280 bone stock

I have a 98 M6 SS. My first dyno with lid, K&N, and a bullet muffler welded where the stock one was yielded 312 hp and 331.6 trq. After I added SLP LT with NO cats it jumped to 337.1 hp and 354.2 trq.

For all the 98 haters out there, my car did 317 rwhp BONE stock. 350 rwhp with measily Macs and all the normal bolt ons. Traps 115 stock motored and N/A. My buddy's 98 Z made 311 rwhp stock, and 347 rwhp with offroad race pipes, ported stock manifolds, and some other small stuff.....

My first LS1 was a 98SS M6.

It had the single cannon on the left.

It dynoed 288rwhp bonestock with 750 miles on it. This was on a dynojet that we feel shows #'s that are a bit low. IMO 98-99's are good for about 290rwhp give or take. The newer ones with LS6 intakes tend to be around 300rwhp around here. It's all relative.

I did the Po' Man's Borla, lid and filter and did 300rwhp. I did headers, cats, y pipe, catback and did 326rwhp. I'm sure with a pulley, tuning and no cats the car would have hit 340rwhp.

I did 435RWHP and 433RWTQ in my 98.
oops that was with a PD 4.5# Blower and headers, custom catback and 3,73s <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I said I dyno'd 293 in my 98 A4 with lid and catback.

That may sound low, but you have to remember, the folks that have posted 300+ on there 98s had cars that were M6s. A bone stock M6 will always dyno higher than a stock A4 with an Un-Locked converter.

Fact of Life.....

I stick to my opinion that your average Bone Stock 98 will automatic transmission will dyno right at 280 rwhp (SAE corrected)

Couple o' years back, GMHTP ran a '98 Z28 at 12.8 bone stock. They also dynoed the car at like 270rwhp.

There *were* some factory freaks in '98 that got the Corvette cam.
