Well there are a good number of Y2Ks running around with big power but none running 100 consitantly.
My guess is that if you hooked 900HP to your XR you'd see 100 with the right conditions.
If you want to run 100 consitantly then you probably need a little bit more.
There are guys out there running 1000HP with Bravos but I don't think they last more than 20-30hours.
I think Huntington Beach is planning 1000HP hooked to a Konrad. That is going to do it for sure...

Whipple pulls 750+HP out of a 3.3L charger at 7lbs on the 525EFI.

750,s not enough. We need to take giant steps. What if Gary where to take a blower like the one from the merc 850 twin screw type, intercool that with the cooler from the 700 only 3/4 inch higher and keep the computer and his flat hatch !!

To make 100mph consistently on the older style bottom you need 950hp w/ bravo. 1000mph with konrad.
Thats my goal to hit 100mph middle of summer lake havasu heat. Theoretically 1000hp gives you a top speed of 114.8mph using Tom's numbers when he hit 94. Subtract the unknowns and 1000hp should get you 105 consistent.
Gary, I would think 900hp would get you there whenever you want as long as that bravo holds up. Do a MM drive or a B1 and build 900hp, be nice to the drive and you'll be flying in the triple digits.

Rob, thats what I was thinking HP wise. The motor never really gave me much thought, as there a lot of great motor builders out there, many who are here on OSO, I do have a couple in mind. As in the other thread the drive is were I am concerned.
