RE: Look what came in today!
a silicone one would do the same thing, not to mention the apr one is $160. I think you over paid for something thats not really going to give you 7awhp, not even 7fwhp. Hope you really like the look of stainless

I know, its not that big on audizine??? i took it with my camera fone...
$300 + ship... but that nets me more HP than a $1000 exhaust so its a good deal

and the famous cynic sissyTT... first off the APR one doesnt bolt up and requires modification to work on a 04 (otherwise i would have got it because its wire reinforced)
the forge also collapses under high boost, people have to put clamps around it.... yes i love the look of the stainless... also forge told me not to put it on a k04 as well... not to say it wont work but thats what they said

Is it your reading skills or memory that sucks? I never said it would make 0awhp, i said it wouldnt make 7awhp. The only way for real results would be done on the same day. The change in temp/humidity and the dyno itself can cause a variance. Most dynos done on the same time have a varience of 3-6whp between runs depending on cool down time. Take all claims like that lightly.
Good effort ontrying to bea hardass
next time reread and get your facts strait first.

RE: Look what came in today!
actually he did the 2 dynos back to back
Even though my car was on this very same dyno 7 days ago, I decided to do some fresh baseline dynos just prior to install.
It turned out that it was a right decision. The car put down 2hp more than it did last week (we did 3 dyno pulls, all within +/- 0,5hp), even though I did nothing to the car since. Do not ask me why - maybe the car was still adapting to the TP or maybe the higher numbers were caused by greater humidity (it was raining today) - 'cos honestly, I do not know.
That 2hp difference could have obviously affected the finall outcome, so I’m glad I decided to do fresh baseline dynos.
Right after the install, and just about 2 hours after the baseline morning pulls, we did final pulls to see the effect.
To our surprise the car put down 5 more hp peak and close to 10hp more in the 5500-6500rpm range

Cincy is the only one who even took into consideration the cars mods, that pipe will not give him close to what that dino says because he has a fraction of the mods, i woul be surprised if it gave more than 3-5whp.
