All depends on who tunes it... and kinda odd they were able to install a "full borla system" since they do not exist for our cars.

You also will not gain power by a .020 over bore or performance rods and once again "performance rockers" that do not exist...

This post is really open ended and you will not get any info regarding HP without being more specific.

Engine type, year, all mods done, tune applied to the vehicle and so on...

3" exhaust huh... talk about overkill, especially if your still sporting the stock 1.85" downpipe... once again there is no borla system, it has to be fully custom bent with a borla muffler.

There is NOTHING there in the info provided that will increase horsepower.
Well maybe the cool air will help a bit.
3" exhaust might even hurt it.

man no offense 3x00 but you must be a stock man arent you. didnt knw i had to be so percise.. so if it makes u happy yes its a custom pipe. with a borla muffler. and it actualy sounds pretty good. not as loud as u would think. my car is more custom then most would prefer but its come a long way since i first got it. it all depends on your taste i gues. its a 3100 sfi. i dont knw the igzacht HP but what i do knw is its wicked fast. i topped out at 153 mph. i knw that may be hard to belive but its true. i give my word on that.

HAHAHAHA me a stock guy, guess you've never seen my car? and I guess you just don't understand what I'm saying or asking for so I'm going to bow out of this thread.

153mph.. yeah ok.

Good call Eric... Let's just leave this one be and let the others have fun.

Yes there is a ECU restriction of 109mph and the fact that 160hp will never push a 3100lb vehicle that fast unless your going downhill with a tail wind.

Either post some facts and some REAL info for someone to go off of to give you a REAL hp number that your requesting or simply stop posting meaningless false info.

Who did the tuning?
What are the specs on the cam?
Did you change the compression ratio, and if so, what is it now?
Did you upgrade your muffler bearings?

I'm pretty sure that unless it was GPS verified (or radar gun) that a stock 3100 can't get up to 156. There are plenty of videos on youtube that show these engines topping out between 130-135 - a modified quad was verified at 142 and that took awhile. If it was a 3400 I might say 145 TOPS, but a 3100 just doesn't have it in it. 10-20mph doesn't seem like that much, but the massive amount of air that is pushing back and down on the car requires more power then it can output.

Obviously driving this fast on public highways is frowned on, I don't think I've been over 100 in years. </getoffmylawn>
