I think a 100 plate is one of the better plate profiles out there! I like mine....even though it still has WAY too much low end smoke, but that might be the HUGE injectors......

The thing you all(except Diva,she was on the safe side)are overlooking is the fact that he has a 95 5spd truck which is a 175hp truck which will respond differently to the so called 100 plate.So he asked how much more power will the 100 give him.So knowing that Chappel's last plate recommended for a 175hp motor is a 8 which will net him on the ground 230hp/605tq you would have to estimate what he may gain over it.IF he has a good fuel system,free of any leaks and has proper pressure,timing is correct and places the plate so it doesn't over fuel down low and try to snuff out the motor early it should go over 300hp to the ground easily.Now with that said it will get hot quickly due to the 35/12 not being adequate to feed the motor and remove the exhaust fast enough.he would also have to make sure the waste-gate is operative and ensure himself that it will open at 40psi so it does not heat the air instead of cool it by allowing the charger to go out of map.Hope that helps....Andy
