Okay the sticker on my engine is stamped out for the 185hp "Mountan Version" not the regular 166hp version. I did a straight pipe & even opened the exhaust up to 3.5" by the transmission so roughly how much HP is that good for. When I got it it had a 2.5" inlet but the outlet pipe from the muffler was only 2.25":eek: We turned up the pump almost half a turn. (they recommend a 1/4 turn at a time)
So my question is with those mods shouldn't I be up to at least 200hp? The other question I have is about how much torque is that equal to?:confused:

Put it in low range, then you'll have twice the torque...
We did while we were out wheeling the other night :eek: with 4.10s it was slow but VERY torquey I think it could have ripped a good sized stump out! I thought we were driving a IH tractor for a while!
If you come out with your truck I will race you in my uncle's dually
Now why would I fall for that one? I'll race it after you help me install a turbo! :ford:

I dynoed my 6.9L with intake mods, full exhaust and the pump turned up. With a 5 speed manual it put 138HP to the ground.....
