Post dyno runs with before and afters done on the same day, same conditions, with multiple runs showing a 10 hp gain and I'll gladly eat my words.

Also, are you familiar with dyno variance? Any car can easily show a 10 whp difference from one run to another given numerous variables. I can do a pull on my car and put on a sticker and the second pull shows 10 hp higher. So I guess that sticker gave me 10 whp.

I guess if you are happy with the sound, then thats all that matters. But Im very skeptical that these actually make power. I would bet that they dyno just like every other SRI out there for the car and are for sound purposes only.
I agree I'm not saying that I have scientific facts showing every sri makes power . I haven't had a chance to do any dyno runs and yes I am aware of dyno variance. All I was simply trying to state was that imo it felt like the car did pull harder... the weather is finally clearing up in vegas will get some video this week for sound clips...


Thanks steveo47 I was gonna bo the r2c route too till I found these
