Well, not too impressive to most, but not bad for a 2.0L
153trq
203hp
Plan on getting her to 200trq and over 250 hp with a pulley, injectors, mas, and so on...

Not bad at all -- what's that about 230hp at the wheels? What are your driving impressions?

[SVTipps]

Is that with the AEM and Borla?

Pretty close to what I pulled (204.2whp) with the JRSC + Borla + ITG.

Bolt ons really wont make extra power with this blower kit for our cars. At least not with out proper tuning. Right now with the bolt ons I am just running more efficient. It was with every mod listed in my sig. The bolt ons just make the car run more efficient. I plan on getting the ecu tuned by Fordchip.com, then I will let you guys know what the JRSC is really capable of (before going to a ten pound pulley....muhahahah). Fordchip is claiming they can get me 220hp at the wheels, and near 180 trq...we'll see.....I am sending off my ecu in two days. O, and I am guessing that you meant 230 at the crank. All you have to do is add 15% to my listed hp at the wheels and you will get the crank rating. Those vortech guys are gonna be in trouble once I get my pulley, injectors, and tune! :bna
Driving impressions are this...
200 hp at the wheels is a lot!
Only driveability issue is the pedal vibration at 4K under normal accel. This is the way the car should have came from SVT. It is only at 5-6pounds right now, and it is a blast to drive. Whine is not too loud of course with the low boost, but still sweet sounding. Now, when driving normal 6th feels like 5th use to, and getting from 80- 130 happens really fast! 1st gear is still slugish as always, but of course much less so. Dont have to down shift from 6th to 4th to get around cars. Pick up in 6th is MUCH better. Basically, if I had to do it again I would shell out the 2880 I paid for the kit and boost gauge sent to my door all over again. It pulls really hard from 1st through every gear all the way to the end of 5th. Hangs with WRXs, S2000s, and a few other things on the highway that would surprise a lot of people!
