.48 is normally accepted as topping out around 340bhp or so.
obviously depends on other things though

If that was some random person on the internet i would say you were talking rubbish, but having seen how your car goes it does seem possible i guess.
I still reckon its not a .48 housing on yours though

Even with 100bhp it would be quicker than your ornament with LEXUS lights.

Daft as it may sound if its lower CR you will probably make less power from it

If looking at a 2wd manifold it is just behind the damper mounting to the left there are some raised numbers you should be able to see the either 6 or 4 as both the 3 and 8 looks like 8 anyway.
