See RC's site for a formula to do the calculation. 450cc are rated at about 280 HP. However, I've read statements that some people have used them for 300+ HP. The 880cc are rated at about 600 HP. I've read mix reviews/information about the 880cc. Some people say it's hard to get the car to idle with them while others have stated they had no problem, and their cars idle like stock.

FYI...use the "SEARCH FEATURE" it will do wonders for you.

Depends on fuel pressure and what % duty cycle you like to be at, but 250-300 is about where they max out (as stated below)

Altitude plays a role as well.

I made 297 on a dyno dynamics (read that as 317ish dynojet). 90% duty cycle on Crome with room to go. I actualy needed to take some fuel out. Stock fuel pressure btw. I didnt re-tune it as it was just a see what you do dyno day, not an actual dyno tuning session. My a/f was off the chart at 20psi and dangerously rich 9:1 a/f. Altitude was pretty low I would guess as I am in FL but it was a pretty hot day.

with a walbro and stock fuel pressure 300 seems to be that max out mark.
