    help this poor guy out w/mods & hp

    i had this guuy sign my guestbook... here's his page:

    http://camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/2001v6power

    he's claiming 255hp.... not likely, he has your basic mods done, i'd say more like 220hp... so he got all pissy and started trashing me saying i know nothing... so please, have a look and please add your input - and put that input on his guestbook...

    his mods:
    Mods
    Flomaster 80 series - catback? or just muffler - max 10hp

    K&N Filter
    Air Box Lid
    Ram Air - these 3 - maybe 7hp or so...
    Air Temp. Module - none
    Headers - 5hp, maybe 7
    MSD Spark Plug wires - none, really
    Y-Pipe - how big?
    Taylor Boots
    Clear Corner Lens

    i'd say 220hp, maybe 225hp, if its a full exhaust w/hi flow cat... but likely not

      exactly my point... to get 250+ hp, you need a cam, head work, or a power adder... i'm not knocking 3.8L's, hell i have one and think its great, its just that i'm realistic, and also when someone talks trash, when they're claiming 255hp... the flames need to start coming out...

        SLP High flow airbox.... The idiot just slapped a gray coat of paint and sticker on his airbox.

        BTW, check out the placement of his playstation. Anyone want to play Tekken from the inside of their skull?

            Where is he claiming 255 hp at? On the side it claims 225.

            I guess it is possible he has changed it since you called him on it.

              Even 220 is high.

              I'd say he would be luckly to see 180RWHP on a dyno.

                  http://camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/2001v6power
                  he's claiming 255hp at flywheel... and he still consistantly tells me that i dont know what i'm talking about, and that everyone he talks to agrees with him... he's probably like 16 and has no life... i invited him to come to camarov6.com and ask around... he is yet to take up my offer, what a j-brone

                    Oh ok, I see it now.

                    Who puts black text on a grey background? That was hard to read.

                    Yes, he is probably a little too ambitious on his HP claim. Probably using ricer math.

                    In your e-mails to him or whatever don't revert to personal attacks (not saying you have or anything). Just state your case backed up with facts in a clam matter. More effective than getting in a flame war.

                      trusy me, i stated the average gains which ppl have had here... re: intake/exhaust/FRAM/headers... and they add up to a lot less than 255hp... but as i say he's probably got no penis and can't handl beeing told he's wrong...

                      i wouldn't care if i didn't have anything to back me up, but i have all you guys, a whole database of info, and quite a bit of knowledge... what an idiot this guy is

                      ppl should sign his guestbook, tell him he's wrong and tell him to come here, then maybe he'll shut up...
