Message:
Can anybody out there in Dakota land guess how much power I have in my 2002 q cab, 5.9, airaid CAI, throttle body
spacer, superchip max tuner, magnaflow 1 in 2 out dumped.
The factory specs say 245 hp nad 335 trq. The factory specs are flywheel only.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

i'm no expert on the 5.9 but i think they generally lay down 190-200 rear wheel for 2wd less if you have 4 wheel drive,with your stuff probably around 215 maybe and again much less if you have 4 wheel drive. by the way that tb spacer does jack squat and you'll get 100 posts saying so

I don't think that 5.9, as listed, is making 215 RW HP, not with an auto especially.

Thanks for the replys.
I am going to have a dyno run soon to establish a baseline for my on going quest for personal perfection of my dak.
I'm not completely sure but a supercharger may be the best way to a horse per inch.
any thoughts would be appreciated.

Take about 15%off the flywheel numbers and that'll get you close on a 2WD rear wheel number, 20% for 4WD.
