without head studs, running normal boost of around 9-12, approximately 180-190 hp at the rear wheels.
may not sound all that impressive,but when your going from approximately 120-130 hp out back as n/a,your gunna know it.

this will help you decide:
Banks Power | Banks Sidewinder Turbo

they're dyno results (running basic boost) seems to be on the high side,then again so does their n/a recordings as well,compared to most members dyno's over the years.
though the difference between n/a and turbocharged is still closely related,so it does appear to be pretty dang accurate.

That's cause they dyno'd the engine by itself, not the rear wheels.

No, no, no you silly patriots fan.

"According to Banks, during development testing the Sidewinder-turbocharged Ford produced a peak power rating of 264 hp at 3300 rpm and a peak torque of 503 lb-ft at 1600 rpm, measured at the engine's flywheel, as manufacturers do."

I am a new yorker so I always liked the giants. But I like tebow on the broncos for what he stands up for(against abortion).

Thanks about the mirrors.

just one more sentence down from that snapon and you got it.



"According to Banks, during development testing the Sidewinder-turbocharged Ford produced a peak power rating of 264 hp at 3300 rpm and a peak torque of 503 lb-ft at 1600 rpm, measured at the engine's flywheel, as manufacturers do."

"We tested power output at the rear wheels, which is where it counts for the truck owner."



bottom line anyway is; if you add a banks,she's gunna move.
now i just need to get it done like you did once i get my truck back from the paint shop.
then iv got to copy your intercooler setup!
i got to get this pig up from 14.5 mpg closer to 20 before spring hits!
