Im at 270HP I wanna reach 300hp too HELLLPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

300WHP? You need NOS...........or a turbo............

ok the motor is rated @270 so im prolly getting 230-240 to the wheels ya think??

**mikejamesbyma** · 07-30-2010

I would say closer to 230 than 240. It's hard to tell with the CVT because it is impossible to dyno which means it's impossible to tell how much loss there is from the crank to the wheels. My car stock would dyno about 210-215.

3rd gens hitting 300 would require cams along with head work, exhaust work - likely 3" single or true 2.5" duals, 3" intake into SFR manifold, not to mention a bunch of internal motor work to handle it all.

Or you could get NOS and you would run 300+ hp all day, or as long as you have juice in the bottle.

So if you put a car with cvt on a dyno it wouldn't be able to give out a reading?

**mikejamesbyma** · 07-31-2010

It would give you a reading but it wouldn't be accurate. When a car like mine goes on the dyno it is typically done in 3rd gear because it is the closest to a 1:1 gear ratio, meaning the engine's output is matching the transmission output. In a 5 speed dyno's are done in 4th gear. In a cvt there is no set gear ratio, obviously, because it has no gears.
