RWHP my guess is 232 HP and 259 TQ

now when you say rwhp is that diff from regular horsepower because that number sounds kinda slow if so what is the regular one

MustangMatt96GT · April 28th, 2007, 11:40 PM

From the factory you have 260 HP at the flywheel. Drivetrain loss is about 15% so the flywheel hp lessened by about 15% will give you close to the actual horsepower at your rear wheels (RWHP)! hope that helps!

yess that does thanks alot is there anything that willl get me about 300

Cams will benefit you a lot but you will probably not see 300 with just that! This is a debateable question and everybody has a different opinion!
