Make sure you post yoiur numbers.

It showed right around 145 hp at the crank and 120 at the wheels.


Keep in mind the MP3 is only 2525 lbs


My MP3 ran 16.4 @ 86 in the Quarter.

Make sure you start at the top of the page and copy the numbers all the way down for the most accurate results.

Your car is heavier than that. Have it weighed. The 2525 wieght does not include fluids like gasoline and oil. My stock ES weighs 2650 (on a scale) and your wheels are heavier and so is your stereo system. Also, make sure you add in the driver weight when doing those calculations.

You may want to check the weight you posted. Most sources that had the MP3 tested claimed around 2850 lbs. If your MP3 actually weighs 2525lbs, then us other MP3 owners are gonna have to put our MP3's on a diet.

The car or drivers...J/K

Sometimes those hp calculations aren't that accurate to begin with...

The actual weight of the car had been posted here 1000 times. Do a search. It's around 2725.

My title says 2525. I assume this is with fluids, but I am not sure.
