If the loss is 4% to 5% reasonably for the atmospheric changes, then we all should be right on the money for gains. 276whp with 4.5% added in would be about 288-289whp which makes sense for a full exhaust or Gen 3 install up from baseline of 276-277whp.

I'm not going to dyno again though until its a reasonable 80ish degrees, now that I got rid of that crap OEM muffler. It feels like the same gains I got with the X-Pipe added in again with straight through Magnaflows added and the rear muffler gone. Hoping for 285-290whp, it definately is fast now.

Why not wait for September and nice cool temps? I agree on your numbers, when I installed my Berk CBE I went from 278WHP to 294WHP under similar temps (low 60's) and low humidity. I then installed Gen3s and showed "no gain" at 95F and high humidity. Something tells me when I do another pull come September, I'll be over 300WHP.

The Berk CBE sounds great. I'm not surprised you got that much gains from it. With the 8 month wait I had to go with the Boombop Shop CBE. I should receive delivery sometime late this week or next week, so I'm post a video. But you're rignt, probably will not get another dyno until September-October.

haha i jsut copied what you said and put it in a diff thread. is all.

Anybody in ATL have a digital camcorder that they might be willing to let me get an exhaust clip on? Wanted to post it on the site database since nobody else has this setup.

where in atlanta you live. I have a video camera we can use sometime on the weekend. Could use your help with some stuff with it too. i aint going to zcon so i'l be around. sat morning best for me.

Dai, I'm off of I-285 on Shallowford Rd (near spaghetti junction). I'm not going to ZCON either so we can shoot whatever we need to. Will PM you my number so we can catch up on Sat sometime.

yeah i def want to re dyno in the fall lol the heat and humidity kills numbers ill get my tune around christmas so we will see what happens then

I just want to redyno at the same temp i had my baseline. which may not happen till september or something.
