pull out the front driveshaft while on the dyno, but be aware it will drive in park if you're on a slope. I suggest pulling it literally right before you put it on the dyno, and the putting it right back in after.

As far as numbers you're probably going to be looking at 185-195whp on a stock X.

thanks, i was at 198 hp, but i put on mac cai, and 3" flowmaster series 50 exhaust, so time to see if i actually improves, and i might get a bama chip or different profermance chip

Did you do anything with the headers, or the cats?

if you make it to 200whp I'll be surprised.

A muffler without any other supporting exhaust mods isn't really going to net you any real power increase. Especially if you still have the stock 2.25" intermediaries and all 4 stock cats.

The CAI isn't gonna net you much

i have no cats, i cut them and i put a 3" regular pipe and had my buddy weld it for me, i have stock exhaust mufflers but thinking on getting the TORQUE MONSTER HEADERS. so i can exhail better, but that is a project within the next few months due to putting on a new stock manifold: and my pipe still has the muffler do to state law
