With my bolt on setup on my 06 I made272 whp and 261 tq, uncorrected.. So figure 260whp and 250tq with a correction, WITHOUT a tune.. Just the MREV, testpipes, pop charger, and exhaust.

The popcharger will make your car cut off over 80-82 mph IN NEUTRAL. It almost killed me on a windy road and i tested it out after to determine what speed it cuts out. Since the engine isn't actively sucking in air out of gear, there is not enough being sucked through the filter at higher speeds because of the airflow. Leave it in gear or blip the throttle once if you go to the drag strip coasting down from 100ish

the 287 collector = mrev, Motordyne currently sells the MREV 2 which is modified for better airflow.

OTOH
With the REVUP engine, it makes much more gains, and both the spacer and MREV2 are recommended to be used together.
On the REVUP, the MREV2 makes TQ and the spacer makes highend HP. Both together give very good results.

Usually in a rwd car you have anywhere for a 15 to 20% power loss from the drivetrain.

The whistling is only at a certain percentage of throttle input as well. Usually for me, it only happens if I'm holding the throttle at about 25-33% from the stated 3k-5k RPM or so.
