pretty much, you don't know your dollar to horsepower ratio. which is usually a factor in determining if something is worth it or not. you should do a baseline.. even if it's 180

I don't need to get a baseline to know that I have mondo room under the hood to work on oil changes, LOL. This is by far the biggest improvement that I notice. Extra HP is nice but the room under the hood was the biggest improvement for me.

if say i made the same hp or only gained 1 or 2 hp. it will still be worth it because i lost like 40lbs in the process when changing the exhaust or header etc.

well, you could take out the passenger seat and see what having your car weight 30-35 lbs less feels like... feels the same.. but you know.
