So......It made a little bit of power, but how was it driving the car after wards?

Car feels to build power a bit smoother than before but this is a SOTP feeling which could just be in my head.

I am sure in the near future, we will get more dyno results....

At least the last poster got it right. Seem others have a severe case of RCDD (reading comprehension deficit disorder).

Thanks for taking the time to post your results, and to carefully state the limitations of your testing. Everyone should be so accurate.

I'm running a dynomax ultra-flo muffler which I'm surprised is costing me as much power as it is. I chose it because it offers me a relatively quiet cruise and gets nasty when the rpms go up. I'm not getting it lol. I wanted to do more runs since the hp seemed to continue to increase.

So it breathes better in higher rpm than the stocker ? How's the heat soak?

well it seems to be that way with the little extra power at a little bit of a higher rpm. Heat soak does not seem to be an issue since the results continued to increase with every run.

Just to note, the dyno was very consistent and other cars were putting down nearly identical numbers with each run.
