Every truck is a little different. You could put down anywhere from 320 Hp to 420. TQ should be 700 to 900 ftlbs. Without a dyno, you will never know.

You should be close to 400.

I have 1.2's and Smarty (but no comp) in my 01.5 HO and i'm at 340/820.

all that should matter is whether you are happy with the performance...

yeah the performance is great but would really like to have a 400hp truck if it hits 399 I will have to find a way to get the 1 extra. I was just trying to see how close I was or if i am already there I am going to dyno it hopefully next weekend.

Its all gonna be a close estimate. Two friends of mine with same exact trucks, same exact modifications dyno'd and were about 25HP apart. I'm figuring that is because one of their transmissions is going out.

Be sure to go on a nearly empty tank and add some RC Car Nitro fuel to your tank. You will be over 400 for sure with a little nitromethane in the mix! Just be sure to add some diesel or a couple quarts of 2 stroke oil afterwards to help keep lubricity up, nitromethane is really dry.

That's a great way to ruin some parts.

id say no to the nitro methane, just go on raw diesel maybe some ct boost, you want regular #s that you can flip to by pushing a button not have to carry nitro methane. its a kinda weak way to make hp, since you cant drive around all the time with nitro methane in the tank.
