Add this to the calculator at the address above, the add in your 102 mph and see what your actual engine (yep, that's right, flywheel) horsepower is.You will be surprised.Bottom line, the quarter mile doesn't lie. My car is 1694k's according to Ford, I'm 115ish depending on geed factor at time of weigh in. Combined weight of 4052 in pounds. Showing around 250Kw's in the car. I'll be off to the bank soon to improve that time before my next power upgrade.Scotty
