Well I finally got my plenum spacer and Test pipes (w/ non foulers) installed. Considering I got the plenum spacer at half price (Thanks Juan ) and the TPs for free, I think I got a some good bang-for-buck whp.

Mind you the temperature inside the shop was hot as ***** (95 degrees). Dave did a baseline dyno and eventually ended up with 239 whp in Shootout mode. After a oil change, spacer and, tp install, we did another dyno in shootout mode. Dynos were done about 2 hours apart.

All throughout my rpms there's about a 10 whp increase. The ECU should adjust to the new breather mods and hopefully I'll see a few more ponies.

Thanks to Dave and Juan! Excellent service at very reasonable prices.

Red is the bone stock baseline dyno, Blue is after the mods were installed. BTW the exhaust sounds a lot meaner.

sad thing is it's funny but true! i wasn't there on saturday but I dynoed at FT when I had the cams installed and it came in at 236 whp... i thought that was a little low, and I have heard of so many more higher readings with just a few mods. I'd like to know whats up, if it was just they dyno or my car just suxors (likely lol)

Stock and stock ... I could definitely use an upgraded exhaust, but I like my stock air box. The vent in my bumper leads right up to it.

Installed 2/3rds of these. Had to drill two holes in both the cluth pedal and brake pedal (the aluminum covers pop off). I'll take pics later this week. They look Ricetastic.

The gas pedal will be a little harder since I have to take it off and drill into and put it back on.

Dave also we ran it in "no correction" mode combined with the hot-as-***** temp.

IIRC Baseline stock dyno was 228 whp and I think 236 after the spacer and TPs were installed.
