I dynoed 280 on the 1.85s, headers, intake, catless and a good tune. Was missing the full exhaust benefits, I'd say 265 ish

I'm at 270 with Headers, K&N CAI, 1.8's, dyno tune, and 2.5" e-cutout. It was also about 100* when I got tuned and dyno'd so that could of held back some.

i would say 260-270 would be reasonable. Add headers to the mix and your in the 270-280fwhp range. Add an intake, you add another 10-20fwhp and a new tranny! I will add that the biggest performance gain I have had is getting a new tranny w/ 3.29 gears. It is now a neck snapper in first....
