The numbers come from the test pipe I would guess. If the welds and fit are good as they look it's a bargain. Run away from the shocks though.

dunno on that.. but i would definently pass..... the motto.... "you get what you pay for" comes to mind when i think of megan racing parts....

don't get me wrong some of their parts are probably perfectly fine.. like strut bars and shift knobs yada yada... but when it comes to performance i would stay away...

and looking at their site on the s2000 part.. i can't help but think those dyno numbers are actually with the header, test pipe and exhuast on the car....

Yea i know what you mean. On the Dyno looks like there an unusal spike at about 6500 rpm, at the very least it has to be with the header and test pipe.

I seem to remember a time when DC Sport was making HP claims on their header. I don't think I need to say anything else about what the actual resuls were
