highly unlikely as crank HP is rated at 291HP. I know there have been improvements in the 2011, but i dont think only a 6% power loss in the transmission is one of them.

 

+1

 

not it stock form it wouldnt, you would need around 350-365 at the crank to put out 280whp

 

Stock 2011 X puts down 260 whp. Cobb has a dyno graph of this. Compared to an 08 X that put down 220 whp on their dyno. We all know the 291 crank hp number is highly underrated

 

+1 I was about to say the same .

 

I bet a case of beer if you were to take a stock X '08 and flash it with the stock X '11 map you would see that extra 20+whp on the dyno.

It's just that now the '11 people are comparing their baseline to their tuned runs & end up seeing less of a whp gain than us people in the lower generations of the X after we ended up getting tuned with the same Stage2 setups.

Ultimately it doesn't matter because regardless a good tuner will be able to fix that mitsu 20whp difference when tuning time comes

 

Probably this on 93

 

Why would the cat hold him back?

 

365/400 on e85 with bolts on and stock downpipe and turbo. 400 might seem like a lot of tq, but this is in denvers altitude so it's actually lower.

 

woah. you definitely will not be seeing 400wtq, if you do, you better have a built block or your **** will blow up depending on how you drive it. 400 torque is a lot for a stock block, and it definitely isnt safe. I have those mods that he has, just different brands, but on 91 i made 355whp and 310wtq.

 

i think around 310-330.. 350 is too much for just bolt-ons unless you're going e85

 

Read my post again, I'm in denver, where there's a lot of altitude. Not the same numbers @ sea level

 

i made 355whp on 91..people have told me from experience they make around 400whp on e85

 

oh thats good on 91! how much boost??

 

yeah i was surprised! but 26psi
