Hey, I've been playing with this Dynojet Runviewer thing and comparing the two runs.

I know earlier I said that the exhaust only made 10.some horsepower right?

well actually that is only at the peak numbers. I just didn't notice because the lines on the graph appear to be so close together it didn't look like much of a gain, but throughout MOST of the RPM range the gains are closer to 17-18HP! For example at about 3780RPMs, the first run is at 296.4 and the second one is at 316.5! That is a 20HP gain!

later,
chris

I would be just as picky as you regarding the sound of the exhaust if I spent that amount on it. However, it sounds damn good in that video, and I am sure 1000 times better in person. Just imagine how crazy it will sound once you have a pulley on it.

BTW, did you open up your air box? Even with a stock pulley, an open air box still makes the blower loud as crap on a dyno with the hood wide open. Although, why mess with your box if you have aftermarket stuff on the way.

Those are awesome numbers to start with, so now you can expect to easily top the 400/500 barrier again when your stuff comes in. Good luck!!
