No, the standard SS has 325hp & the Center Mount Exhaust SS has 345hp @ the motor.My first 02 SS A4 made 302 rwhp which is 361 hp @ the crank so you can see how they were underated.

I do not see any bikes. Am I blind?
Both knee caps, that is bad. When are you going to be able to walk again?

Good luck.
Bill

Well ,yes but you can do more w/ a auto.The only difference is w/a auto is you can change your shift points.But for the money i rather have it dyno tuned.

Default thanks

yea it helps a little thank you guys. I just wished it would produce the 345 hp to the ground. This car is still fast as hell though very easy to break the speed limit.

Thanks 01ssreda4,i actually got in my 02 SS and drove for the first time in 15 weeks w/ the t-tops off it felt good to be out of the house.
V8Z28s you have atleast 305-310 rwhp that's not bad for a stock car.

Did you already buy the programmer? If not then you're definitely better off getting it tuned by a real shop. A few bolt ons would get you to 345 rwhp no problem.
