Does anyone know what the stock HP is on the car? I have found a few websites that say it is rated at 262, is that correct? Has anyone put a stock car on the dyno to check?

Factory rated at 252hp 267tq. There's been dynoed with a few mods done, but obviously that'll be different than the motor hp. Do a search.

Actually, there was an unpublished performance increase on the 2002 Lincoln LS. Lincoln changed the design of the airbox to allow more air flow. Lincoln has two different part numbers for the air boxes from 2000-2001 and the 2002 models. I don't know if it was quite a 10 HP increase but more like 5-8 HP maybe.

I don't know if this is right or not, but since I have the CAI, would it just be about the same as a 2001 with the CAI?? Dynoed at 263 with it on.
