Since some of you were saying more needs to be posted here, I shot this at the TMS dyno day back in November. I cant remember the numbers off the top of my head, but i'll try to get them from Brad. I believe they were in the 250rwhp range. Doug of BamaChips.com datalogged and found performance being hindered by a bad o2 sensor.

Here's the video

Thanks for the video Scothew.. So that was just a straight shot to the intake, with no intercooler.... 250RWHP was pretty good considering that... If it was intercooled or aftercooled, 300HP would have been a piece of cake for the 3.8L... They say the 3.8L is good for 500HP with all stock internals..
