and some aluminum to reduce wieght. The engine builder that did the machine work estimates it to be a little over 500hp. I have not takin it to the track, and I'm not sure I will. It's more of a street car. And I have some serious traction issues.
My guess, with some slicks and tuning this car should get in to the 12's, so most of the diesels won't beat it, but there are some out there that will.

My truck has gone into a regen cycle while pulling a grade with a load, and it sucks, the boost cuts back to around 25PSI + or -.
So my point, i think the actual potentional hp loss is much higher than 1hp with the DPF.
Just my .02

SuperchipsMike - I'm surprised at the minimal gain from removing the DPF - primarily because it seems so restrictive.
Were there any positive benefits that were noted on the dyno run, such as a torque gain? Is this a situation where the mixture becomes richer from removing the restriction, and to see HP and mileage gains the chip would need to be reprogramed to provide less fuel?
