Jeppis Power Meter :) If you donīt know how much power your car has you can use the same method as people do in Jeppis, Finland. They use a table that shows how many horsepower different modifications give and count how much hp they have in their cars. Itīs a cheap wat of finding out what to tell your friends when they ask how much power there is under the hood. I will list the most common modifications and give you a little example.
