241.8 hp @ 6800 at the wheels (no boost no nitro - All Motor.)
197.5 ft/lbs @ 5600

Makes about 278 crank HP if you apply the 15% loss rule.


And the dyno is brand new , and it looks like legit numbers because my buddy went in with his F250 2011 with the 385hp 6.2 and it pulled a 311hp at the wheels.

What mods?
I got a chip (came with car so no idea what is on it)
CAI
All custom exhaust except for the y pipe
On a 92 sho and she pulls pretty good.
I want a ballpark for my hp

Cool. There's a SHO engine sitting at a garage near me in the lot with a tarp over it. I want it in my Escort, but I think the guy knows what he has. The car was sitting for a long time and now it's gone, but the engine still sits there.

For what you stated you would get around 190 whp. The stockers runs for 170-185 whp.

if you don't mind (PM would work) how much you got invested and what is the best mod. I do understand with these you have to have the full package to have all the items worth while.

15k in the car

4-5k in the engine/trans , including a full rebuild/gaskets/sensors. And ive done all the work.

Its hard to tell the best mod on this setup since Ive done everything in the same time.

For more HP , go turbo. you will get around 400-500 hp for that kind of money.

[hamburglar]

i want too
but the SHO is going to be the DD for awhile until I get some money rolling.
then i still want to put the sho motor into something light weight eventually
like a miata
(and no not a festy.......as of right now lol)

Great job awesome numbers!!!

this thing is probably very fun to drive.

[Damkid]

Nice work indeed :thumbright:

On a side note, last night I got to go for a ride in my friend's 95'(I think 95') SHO, it's all stock but still pulls pretty good, plus a nice sounding engine

amen to that.

Back when i was really little my uncle took me for rides in his SHO because i used to love the sound, id always make him take me for a ride so i could hear it over again

Good numbers! My uncle had a first gen SHO. He threw a supercharger on it and was dyno'd at just shy of 300hp. In the first two gears when you gunned it it would switch lanes with out you turning the wheel. I think he out a limited slip of some sort in it.

Yes the torque steer is pretty bad , but it helped alot when i got these tires (245).

Theres also the Quaife , which is a LSD , but it costs 1500$ for the diff alone. I have heard that , that thing is great.
