How much horsepower will this give me?

Noticed I was missing 3 or so of my valve stem caps, got bored on Amazon, and these bad boys should be here in a few days.

Also ordered, received and replaced the wife's 2001 4dr LX's hub caps yesterday. Applied some tire shine while the wheels were off and her car looks 100% better. Will get some pics soon.

But seriously. I'm thinking 6 more hp and 4-5 more tq.

Thoughts?

These results are typical, and may vary +/- 3 WHP depending on the color (due to specific heat transference of the color spectrum). Flux capacitor.

Actually looking at them, they aren't as aerodynamic and probably are heavier then the black plastic ones most use.

+9 hp +6tq and 14% better gas mileage

but these will decrease your cars weight by 10%, improve handling, cornering & braking.

probably a gain of about 20-30 horses. i would add some stickers too. they add about 2HP. But it depends on where you put them

So how many HP per wheel? Does it gain HP in the rear wheels since you are putting it on all 4 tires? Graphs and pics would help.

Going to run them without a tune for a week or so. And I definitely think they will give me a boost in power at the rear wheels.

Technically I will have AWD!

You don't have a driveshaft so technically, you don't.

If you mean they'll free up rotational weight, thus allowing your wheels to spin faster, then yes, that could be correct ;). But that's still not happening :lol:.

^^ Brother, please. This will free up at least .0000000473 ounces of unsprung weight, plenty in order to swap in that 6-CD changer unit in the trunk without worrying about adverse weight adding.
