I wish this was about everyday street horsepower and not what you can get on a dyno with fighter jet fuel and boost turned up to 22lbs or higher. Anyone with a mildly modded 951 can add 40 to 50 hp to the wheels for one or two runs on a dyno that way......
These little 4 cylinder motors had 217 at the crank or about 185 at the wheels from the factory assuming 15% loss. Too many people make assumptions about their hp without placing their car on a dyno for $75 and seeing what it really is.

Nice to see what is possible with octane not being a controlling factor, but I prefer to know what my car can do at any given moment; or red light and on ramp.

ok... So... can I put over 500hp bcuz it's capable? Don't confuse that question with its intent.. I won't vote for over 500 cuz I NEVER MADE THAT ON A DYNO.. unlike a others? I need some charts fo this ****. lots of bench dynos I think.
Relaxed90 is on the over 600.. but I don't think he's talkin about a 951..
Pumice? Really?
HAHAHAHA! LOL.. FIshey is in the 450-500hp range.. yeah.. Lart.. is this what u'r looking for?

It might have been more interesting to narrow this down to the type of dyno and on what octane fuel. Last time I dyno'ed my car on Mustang it came in at 320 RWHP. A few days before with the same settings it came in at 350 or 360 RWHP on a DynoJet. I usually run 16 psi boost on 92 octane. I have a 21 psi profile in Mafterburner and sometime play around with it on higher octane fuel from a station in Auburn, WA. It has never been dynoed at 21 psi.
How should I have answered the poll? It is somewhere between 320 and 410 RWHP.

Considering current issues, I don't understand why ST is being championed.
I think that exhibits considerably poor taste.
