probably about 115-120hp at the wheels before you hit NOS.
how big is your jet for NOS?

The 122hp stock is not what you end up with at the wheels. The 130-135 would be at the crank, but it's not that high at the wheels (drivetrain power loss).

Damn, I'd be afraid of the nos too!! lol, and I've heard that once you hit nos you gain about 60 horses, but I don't know.

And I've HEARD from one of my many ignorant friends that everytime you hit the nos, you lose a year off your pistons... True?

Alright before ya'll get too confused with the HP numbers, I'll say that nobody was right so far. The A20A3 is 120 hp @ the CRANK. After subtracting about 10-15% for drivetrain loss, you end up with approximately 105 hp at the wheels, give or take a few.
