Hey all, as you can see in my sig, I'm dropping a CR into my Ford Super Duty and a lot of people have been asking me what kind of HP this thing is going to make. I have somewhat of an idea, but don't know for sure so I thought I'd ask.

Here's a list of the mods:
- HTT 64/71/13
- Helix 2 & F1 springs
- Flux 2's
- Stock CP3 for a few months, will be installing Evil Twins duals soon
- I've already got a good fuel supply setup with big supply lines and a Bosch 044 pump from what I had for my Powerstroke
- Smarty
- ATS exhaust manifold
- CFM+ intake horn
- Headstuds

The trans is also already fully built, so I've got no worries there. My guess is somewhere around 600-650 RWHP, but I wanted to see what you guys thought. Am I thinking about right?

 

Id say 575

 

Your going to need either a modded or the dual cp3 your planning on to crack 600+hp. I think you'll be real close. I made 589hp the first time I dynoed with a HTT Qd 64, Flux 2's, Helix 2, Floor It Stage 2 and a vA C5.
When vA custom tuned it those numbers went to 616hp, and when I added the dual pumps 636hp.

 

Thanks Kai. I couldn't remember what you did with the stock CP3. I can wait a few months to try and crack the 600 HP mark. I'll probably still be breaking in this engine anyway and won't want to push it really hard for a bit.

 

I agree. You need a pump to hit 600. Which Smarty tune will you be running?

 

575- to a hot 600.

 

It all depends on what year CR you drop in there.

04.5+ will give you more power per dollar.

 

I have no idea what tune I'll be running on the Smarty. I don't even have it in hand yet, and I'm still learning.

The engine is an early '04.
