Well, FSWERKS dyno sheets of a stock 2.0 manual put the baseline around 120whp. The automatic will obviously be several HP down (approx 20% drivetrain loss vs 15% in the manual).
Intake/tune/exhaust are good for about 20hp gain on the 2.0 manual and FSWERKS clearly states that adding the race header is good for about 6-7whp with typical bolt ons. (The race header dyno sheet is on a car with port/polish and cams, so that is of no help here)

You have what I would guess is close to the tune of 135-140 wheel horsepower. That is a generous estimate.

That's great. The Autobahn is a well-maintained road system with very different conditions than some 'privately owned' back road in Texas.

Let's keep it real here, folks.

Well MAC im not going to sit here and debate the HP of my car with you... I saw what my speed was.. Thanks for the help though

[mac.mogul]

In that case I look forward to seeing your dyno sheet.

You dont know anything about the Autobahn then its no better than in the states

[mac.mogul]

Yes I'm sure it is exactly the same. I'll remember that next time I'm out in the country bouncing over a poorly paved road that those poor fools in Germany have to suffer the same problems at 143mph.

Ok since every "privately owned back road in texas" is a joke to you lol what a sterotype, We are close family friends with someone who owns a rather large High Fence game ranch that I had the luck of spending alot time at while growing up. There is a very level paved road that goes throughout the entire property which has several stretches longer than 3 miles. the owner wanted the road flawless because one he has the money to never worry and two he wanted the smoothest ride possible in case they had to shoot while moving..
I will not go into any further detail because it is simply not needed. I do not in any way feel that I need to shut you up because you would simply find something else to bitch or complain about.. Its a never ending process...
thanks
