Ballpark HP based on mods

I don't have easy access to a dyno so I don't know how much hp Fizzgig is making. Anybody have an idea based on the mods?

thanks in advance,
Kevin

Hard to say. Do you have a ECU Tune from anyone?? if not you need one in a bad way!!!
Without a tune I'd guess very low 200's
With Tune high 220's maybe more and could be quite a bit more depending on how the RMW cam works with that head..
Without the header, cam, and head but with a good tune you'd be right around 190's
Lot of varibles at play.. Never seen those brand mods together, but have seen more then a few with, pulley, cat-back, CAI, and RMW head, header, cam and tune and you'd be around 240's.. Got to plan mods like that together regardless of what brand your using..

I bet 210-220....
With no tune, the limit toyour hp is fuel....the 380's should max out 210hp or a bit more...and you are most likely a bit lean....so 220 seems right.....
Bigger injectors and a tune....you might get (with a strong motor) closer to 240+....andbe much safer motor wise with better drivability....

I have 440's from Jan. Missed Jan in Louisville due to illness, but fully intend on getting the tune. Have a Dimsport so a remote tune is a possibility but would prefer a hands on Jan tune. Fizzgig is disabled at the moment with a clutch problem. Know whats wrong and have the parts to fix it. Unfortunately my health is in the toilet and the garage that installed the clutch says it not their problem - typical. Don't have the cash to have someone else do it. My dad died in Feburary and I had to cover the funeral costs. It's damn expensive to die.

Wanted to go full-on RMW but it didn't work out. So, based on extensive discussions with vendors, I ended up with what I have. Beside, mix and match can be fun. Also, the Milltec and Magnaflow were the best available at the time - fall 2002.

Find a dyno that can datalog, and you can do a remote tune in real time.
