Whats up buddy

Personally I feel you should have gotten a different exhaust to take full advantage of the header. You need something single and not restricted, and you will really notice a difference. I say rock the Invidia for a little, then sell it for a J's.

Good luck, you need any info hit me up.

I have done all my modifications baselines and after all within 30mins or less, same dyno.

I know what makes power on these cars, I have seen it, tested it, etc. like i said, if he were going for all out performance a single 70mm would have yielded much better gains... W no cat.

I can give a rats ass what manufactures claim, I claim what i have seen... what you are saying about the K&N is exactly true, people are doing baseline dynos and then adding the intake and months later they wonder why it only gained 1 HP or even lost power........

No need to believe them, I have my own dyno proof of the invidia gaining more then 7hp with just a testpipe. However, no one can base that the exhaust lost low end torque based on the OPs comments.

1. Your not going to feel a 1-3tq loss (if any at all) through your butt, go to a dyno if feel the need to see gains / losses. The only accurate but dyno is when going from NA to FI. Otherwise, anyone who says they can feel a 2hp difference is full of it

2. Different drivers, different cars that can easily account for a 7hp increase.

so are you saying your invidia dual Gained 7 hp from a Test-pipe? a test pipe alone CAN gain that much power, regardless of whats behind it, dual, single, stock, etc.

I gained more then 7hp (hence why i said MORE then 7hp) however whenenver I say how much, all the haters, that pay 1k+ on their exhausts and don't make as much power, come out and call BS despite me showing them the dyno proof to their face. So I'll stick with my "more then 7hp" claim.

BTW, show me a stock exhaust that gains 7hp with just a testpipe . Its more like 3hp if that.
