    I would guess 125hp at the wheels. My car pushed 170hp at the wheels when it was stock

            99camaro99, what all mods did you have when you pulled that 174hp? I did a dyno pull with the FRA, K&N, MAF screen removed, PVC piece replacing the air silencer, Flowmaster, WS6 tailpipes, Bosch plugs and wires, and 91 octane gas with a bottle of Redline FI cleaner, and I pulled a best of 169rwhp. I don't know if my numbers are low, or about right for the mods that I have.
            Also, how did you modify your cat? I'm wondering if I would get better gains doing that, or putting in a LS1 manifold to Y-pipe section.

              He has a '98, it's a 3.8L V6. But you are right, stock on a 3.4L V6 is around 135hp at the wheels.
