Did you dyno the car or are you just estimating? More times than not the estimate does not match the actual hp. The motor has to be tweeked to get it to the max based on your components. Then take it from there.

I recall when I first dyno'd my car it came in disappointingly low. I faxed the sheets to Barry Grant and they made several small suggestions. Went back to the dyno and picked up 40 hp.
