Default RS-R Ran Up

Sooo, once I figure out how to purchase it (the RS-R website doesnt have a price for it yet) I'm gonna buy the new RS-R Ran Up oil additive. In the latest Import Tuner, they tested it on an AP1 and gained almost 9whp and 4wtq with the only bolt on being an ASM single exhaust. Its also been tested in 350z's and GTR's and gains were from 20-40whp!. The article made a believer out of me and I'm running about 230ish whp N/A right meow so I think an extra 9whp would be peachy.

I would be curious to read this as well. I tend to believe those products are akin to snake oil.

230whp on a bolt-on AP1 on a street tune? Was this dyno'd or just a guestimate?
