Just curious on horsepower now......
I have an 89 SE and I was just curious how much you guys think the horse power is at with K&N and 3A racing Exhaust. I am probably running like 80 now cuz of my blown tranny haha!!

ok. now i get it! i can be dense sometimes! with a K&N filter (geez what was i thinking!), you got at least 1000hp. like DA-MAX said. if you add a GTR badge on the rear then you gain at least 200 more. with wear and tear on the used car, you subtract 9000hp. so now you are into the negatives. time for a new car.

depends on how many stickers you stick on the outside.
if you really want to know, fork out the cash for a dyno like the rest of us.

As we all know, dark colors absorb more sunlight than light colors. Because of this, the stock corner lights will absorb the sun more than the clear corner lights. Therefore, the stock lights will weigh more since they absorb all that sunlight which effectively adds the uneccessary weight of light to the car slowing it down. It's dyno proven, clear corners add about 7-8 hp.
