what were you thinking for your intake manifold? Judging by the carbon on your syncros, you will be racing this? What are you aiming to do with it? Not replacing valves? Why do want the m2b4 - just the stock lsd or do you like its gearing better?

We have to start getting a little background and future aspirations written in these "guess my hp!!!!" threads. Rethink how you really want us to respond, and if you are seriously wanting some input give us something to work with other than a list of upgrades.

As for my im ... I was thinnking euro r or skunk 2 pro.... I havent really decided yet. I have seen the threads and they both preform well...

I will probably use this car for track days as well as daily driving for the next 2 years or so. I want a little more reliability (Hence the carbon syncros(might be a little bit of overkill though)) .... And the valves will be installed once i start to get into the machining of the head...

Now as for the transmission, the only real reason i have the m2b4 tranny is because my oem tranny popped and i bought this one at the same price as the original.

Sorry, I wasn't clear when i asked my "Guess My HP!!!" question.

What i ment was:

I will be tunning in about a week or two so....

At this point and time, in texas weather(sea level, moderate to high humidity, and temps around 95ish), what kind of numbers should i expect to see?

Going to depend on your tuner's experience, who is tuning it for you?

There are no really big name tunners down where i live...

I'm going to a guy named Alex. he's pretty good... he tunnes most if not all the cars down here ...

Texas is a big state, but you should consider tuners st00pid and Tony1. Tony1 I believe owns a shop called Tony1 Race Development (google it, I think it's there). st00pid is in texas somewhere, but I forget where.

Its always worth it to have to drive several hours away to get a good tune. This is common for quality setups.

stoopid is in houston, as is secret services, the tuner at SS I believe worked for stoopid fast previously
