I am no longer going to do the bet off of crank horse power. I will do it off of increase from my stock power. It is really the only realiable way to do it without pulling the engine (which I don't plan on doing). We could make the bet for a 115 increase in horse power to the wheels (keep in mind that is lot since the AT tranny robs the hell out of the horsepower). But in the end you guys are right, there is no reliable way to check crank hp without engine dynoing it so it was silly of me to be talking as if there was a way.

Btw, I am jealous of your 911, what year is it? My dad used to drive a 911 before he sold it underpriced like an idiot and his current car is a first year 350z. The 911 was a mid 90's and had little work done to it (not that it needs work done to it) and it was a sweet car. The thing is, when you buy a higher end car, there is less and less you can do for improvements. On the SVX there were TONS of room for improvements in the stock design (even back when it was released) and that makes it easier to see larger horse power gains. Obviously as I do more and more stuff to the car the already crappy money to power ratio will decrease, just like it does for your porsche. This is a list of everything that is changing for my setup from stock with a few minor things like better spark plugs etc. not included:
1) ECUtune memory adaptor and SVX Stage III software
2) ECUtune manifold, black or cast gray powder coat, core required
3) ECUtune hard fuel lines, core required
4) ECUtune throttle body adaptor, black or cast gray powder coat
5) ECUtune alternator bracket/tensioner, black powder coat
6) ECUtune tensioner, black powdercoat
7) ECUtune crank pulley, black or silver anodize
ECUtune 6 rib power steering pulley(actually four rib now...the six cause clearence problems), black or silver anodize
9) ECUtune machined ac compressor bracket, black powder coat, core required
10)ECUtune IAC manifold, black or silver powder coat
11)ECUtune Bypass valve manifold, black or silver powder coat
12) Whipple 1600AX supercharger
13) Whipple 4&5/16" Drive snout
14) Whipple bypass valve
15) NISMO SR20 740cc fuel injectors
16) Tomei fuel injector clips
17) Nissan maf meter (used)
1 Tomei Nissan maf meter plug
1 Gates ac compressor belt
19) Gates supercharger and power steering pump belt
20) Dayco alternator belt

And I am sorry for comming off all defensive hehe, it was late and I probably misinterpreted(wow I really am the worst speller on this planet) the tone of your post. Plus sometimes I act like a crotchety old man despite me being a youngin.
