In my 91' SE 5 speed w/ 115K on the clock- how much more HP and Torque can I expect to get at both the flywheel AND wheels with a greddy exhaust, performance y-pipe, and PR CAI all combined? How much time will I shave off the 8.1 second stock 0-60 run? (The stock 91 has 160 HP and 182 lbs/ft Torque at the flywheel.) I am guessing around 15-20 extra horses. How accurate am I???

Power increases are highly dependant on the current condition of the engine and the current state of tune.
0-60 and 1/4 mile estimates are highly dependant on driver's skill, track conditions, ambient temp and altitude of said track.

Jeff, thanks for the reply. The car is in pretty top-notch running condition, with a fresh nissan OEM parts tune-up including plugs, wires, cap & rotor, and filters. I haven't checked the compression in all 6 cylinders yet but I will. The friend I am buying the car from has taken meticulous care of it and NEVER dogged it as far as I know. It has 115K on it and still has the original clutch, if that gives you any indication. And the clutch is still strong!
Not to brag but I am a pretty good driver in racing start situations such as 1/4 mile runs, impromptu Stoplight races and the like. In other words, I know the VG very well from my 85 300ZX N/A 5 speed and know what points to shift at to extract the most performance out of it, and could match (probably) the numbers in the magazines.
So, with that to go by, what do you think? Thanks!!!
Best Regards,
Ben
