i got 236whp w/ only amuse Ti exhaust, Ti-ypipe and test pipe.
so i'd say my stock is around low 220whp too..
here is my dyno graph.

In Seattle, climate is not that hot. but that is what dyno pulled stock.
With HKS Racing Suction, Kinetix Plenum, Lightweight pulley, Borla Header, Random Tech Cats, Injen Exhaust, JWT CAMs, APEXi A/F Manager and etc. The car pulled a 254RWHP. That was the best number out of 12 pulls. and also with 91 octane. Torque 238lbs/ft

Some say Borla header sucks. Looks like that is the only item I can think of changing. If this Alpha header is that good. It will be worth the money, but I won't do it if it only adds 2 hp to my current set up

I hope this makes everyone on the forum happy for the holidays.

This would truly prove if installed. how much hp there really is.
I have HKS Intake(6hp), Kinetix Plenum (2hp). Borla header (2hp)
Random Cats (3hp) Injen exhaust (7hp) JWT Cams (13hp) Pulley (3hp) 253 - 254 is my rear wheel power now. This is got to be as completely modified as it can be for Natural Air. I also do have Super AFC II to make it flow the smoothest. Microsoft used my car to make their next video game. If you like, I will offer you a test at our facility. I can pay for dyno. You can pay for the install, if it has more horsepower than what I got by 10 overall. I will buy you header and I will pay for the install. If not you pay install and I pay dyno.
Does that sound fair, you say there is no headers, what about ebay.com someone has 49 of them online. You can perhaps buy one for the test. How is that ?
fair? My results are as cruel as the reality can be. Like Injen's 17 hp claim, with my machine, it is now 7, which is confirmed by many other dynos. Borla has no guts to make claims, but it is 2 on my dyno. You made claims saying 20. All I need is 10 from you. If you perform half of what you claim. I will buy them. How is that?

jchen, you should be able to modify it. Go to ''Control Panel" near the top, then to "Edit Options" or "Edit Profile" to change your avator, the words under your name, signature, etc.

Alright....sorry for the long delay, but with exams and classes finishing up, this is the first chance I had to really get back online!!!! So here's the REVIEW:
Well, I have had my car now for a couple of days and I am extremely excited about the turn out. To make sure that I made a proper assesment of the vehicle and how the headers compared with a stock 350z, I went ahead and drove my friends stock 350z for a couple of hours (we traded off
), and then took mine out. To begin, I'd like to thank the crew at Powertoyz for installing it along with the sponser for testing it on my vehicle! Well, I couldn't be happier with the outcome!!!! As you can see with the pictures that have been posted of the headers, they are definitely of the highest quality. When you open the hood, you don't really notice then until you get the sun to shine in and you see the gleam of the stainless steel...it looks beautiful!!! But moving on to its performance (which everyone is looking for), You can definitely feel a difference with the car. When you first turn it on, the car has just a tad bit of a louder note to the exhaust (nothing gigantic). Once you take off it just feels fantastic (it seemed to let the engine flow a lot smoother... as well, to my ears, the exhaust note seems to be more apparent)!!! Launching and driving at the lower gears, you don't seem to notice a big differnce (going to the track soon so I'll give you the numbers when I have them), but where the car really shines is at top end!!! Stompping on the throttle at those higher gears, the car pulls a lot harder!!!! And its not a subtle pull, it just pulls a lot harder than when the car was stock!! My first impression of what a difference the headers made was when I was just cruising on the highway and I punched it and it took off! I was very impressed by the power that was gained at higher speeds. Getting to 100mph is a lot quicker now than before. As well, proceeding to the higher speeds you also see that you reach them a lot easier. I can't wait to see what times I can get at the track. I noticed largely that there was a difference when I raced my boss! He has an 04 STi with pretty much every bolt-on possible....regardless, he's running low 12s (soon to be high 11s).... he traunced me the first time we raced!!!!! We raced yesterday, and he was more impressed than me!!!!! i kept up a lot better this time than the first!!!! But all in all, I am definitely happy with the product....If you guys have any specific questions, this is my first review so I'm not too sure on what everyone would be looking for, but again if there is anything specific that you want to ask me, don't mind PM me or writing it in this post.

Powertoyz is an authorized distributor of Alphawerks Racing Development. They are on ebay, but they do not have any headers. They are pre-selling their order of 50 headers.
