Just making sure that my car is sound. Its bone stock with 91,000 miles on it. And it still pulled 182hp to the wheels, thats as good as it was right off the showroom floor 6 years ago...
@MrGlad271 that 227hp is at the flywheel, it gets decreased down to the 182hp bcause it is forced through the transmission, differentials, and everything else b4 it reached the ground. little things like residual brake pressure can decrease it further. the general rule for 2wd vehicles is 10-20% loss depending on components, for 4wd/awd's it's even worse 15-30% loss. @ 182hp it's only a 19.9% loss which is pretty good :) i've seen 192hp off a stock but that was new fluids and gapped brakes.
Very nice, and clean. Love the stock look of w's. Have the same OEM kit on mine as well, but the rear slats are discontinued. Not a wagon tho '02 Blue sedan :\
