:iagree:

A friend with a 1999 MN6 C5 coupe with Stingers and intake made 315 SAE corrected RWHP.

More than enough to get your learner's permit suspended. :rofl: :lolg:
Enjoy, but be careful. The police seem to pay more attention to 15 yr. olds in Vettes and cut them a lot less slack than us old codgers. :D

15!!!!!!!!!!Dude, keep it stock until you learn how to drive. Seriously 300rwhp is probably more than you can really handle now. Wait a while get used to driving it, then start modding it. That way you can save up.

Dont worry he will not be out much. I had a Cobra at the age of 16. Unlike most kids he has grown up and has been around fast cars for awhile now. He and I were both taught how to drive standards in a Cobra that made right around 300rwhp. He will not be driving it all to much and he also will be VERY limited on what he does. Ive taught him alot of stuff about driving. I have driven a 500rwhp Cobra since right after I turned after 17. Im 18 and going on 19 and a few months. Right now the Cobra is without a motor because of a fuel pump problem during a test pass. I never once had a ticket, Ive been pulled over one time, and had no wrecks.

Im watching out for my little bro and Im not going to let him do stupid stuff. Hes not going to be getting any more bolt ons for awhile. Maybe a set of B&B Tri-Flows when he gets some money. Until then my father, mother, and I agreed that he does not need any more bolt ons. Plus he needs to see what kind of power my car makes with its bolt ons ;) Its been 2-3 weeks and I've got a few things. Some more parts are on the way ;)

As for the numbers. Whoever made the guess at 325rwhp was correct. I made 321rwhp on my bone stock 2000.
