With a few mods that would be at the wheels...stock at the crank is rated 130 roughly. Damn drivetrain loss. I'll probably have to have my car dyno tuned after my turbo. laugh

With the 20% loss that the powertrain usually takes. That takes it to 104 hp at the wheels.

Thats about all we can do. Unfortunately it does have about a 20% loss. Its my understanding that actual % loss varies from one transmission to another...slightly varies anyway. I may be wrong though.

Right you are Brad. The 20% is average.

I'd like to know about the exhaust too. I'm wondering what the extreme decrease in back pressure did for the actual performance numbers.

It seems to add quite a bit. But that may just be me.

I wonder how you figure the actual % for your specific car? You'd almost have to know the hp at the wheels and at the crank...as seperate measures.

Using the 110 figure above it would be about 15% roughly.

Guys, look at the CTA dynos by Chris Wong linked on this forum. ZX2 and ZX3 Zetec dynos. Stock about 103 FWHP, with KKM 106 FWHP, with CTA intake + ignition 109 FWHP or so I think. Torque 112 - 118 or so, pretty decent.


1999 Amazon Green SVT Contour (#554/2760)
Stock SVT Duratec V6 with:
Intake- K&N filter/75mm MAF meter
Exhaust- MSDS Y-pipe/Bassani catback
Durability-Ford "dual mode" damper, Mobil 1/K&N oil filter
179.2 FWHP at 6900 RPM
