No, GM doesn't do everything in wheel horsepower...put they do under-rate the hp...it all varies car by car...there is a guy on here that had 220whp stock. We call those kind of cars factory freaks.

If you dyno your car stock, you should see that GM rated this car pretty much right on the nose, for whp. They say it makes 205 hp at 5600rpm I believe, and on a dyno, that's right about where you'll be at that RPM. The thing is, we make power all the way to redline, so you're gonna eek out a few more hp at the wheels in most cases.

My car was 233whp with an intake and like 1.5 extra psi.

Did you look at the sticky thread with the Redline dynos? There's PLENTY in there. Even SCC got like 198 at the wheels.

If the GTI should be a kill, dunno about the Celica, that a little car to turbo!

i know i could kill that gti the only thing it has is a chip and exhast. the celica has 215 whp and $7,000 worth of work in vested in it.

Wow.. only 215 whp with a turbo??? Geez, toss a $600 stage 2 setup on there and you'll own him too...

ha ha ha, if you spend like $2200 on our cars, w/o labor, you could get over 300whp.

I think this is my cost breakdown so far
Injectors and harness: $300
Weapon R Intake: $180 eBay
INTENSE 2.5" System: $100
Spark Plugs: $ 8
Clutch Masters FX400: $525
Tuning: $185 (need to get done)
Then I need an exhaust and downpipe and I'll be satisfied for a while...

In summation...these cars are cheap as hell to get tons of power out of!

The intense stage 5 with the 2.5 is $1000 not $100.
