another way is to run the 1/4 mile and use an estimator
http://www.speedworldmotorplex.com/calc.htm
For instance, if a truck weighed 4000 lbs with the driver and ended the quarter at 77 mph, the estimator says 168 Horsepower. Your numbers may vary, slightly higher in the West, not available in Blue states.

I forgot to add that the Accel cap and rotor is great, but you also need a better coil and for sure a better module. The cheaper is Accel module and it works great.Last edited by camaro_fever68; 02-02-2006 at 01:45 PM.
