Question

Answer 1

your probably going to be adding about 35-40 horse power it , i got about the same thing on my truck and it runs right at 300 horse power,we put it on a Dino and tested it,at the rear wheels running around,4000 rpm,s it runs a good 290 horse power,all the ignition does is let it burn the gas a lot better,but 290 isn't to bad considering what it will do for it,be careful on the plugs you choose to use in that one my ignition will burn plugs out in a day the only thing i can use that will stay in it is champion platinum plugs and they will last,you,ll gain enough to notice on it,good luck.  

Answer 2

Probably far less than original. When you do these mods you are altering the input to the ecm that controls the engine performance. You will likely have engine problems and check engine light quite often.
