Fast Intentions exhaust is here!

I agree with that. It's just not easy for a daily driver to put all his stock stuff back on to do a dyno run. I also don't see someone

I agree with that. It's just not easy for a daily driver to put all his stock stuff back on to do a dyno run. I also don't see someone with berk HFC's already getting a 20 whp gain by adding an FI exhaust. You are talking a 35+hp gain then, and if that's the case then sign me up for that combo

as far as more power goes, dyno calibration and conditions can play a pretty big factor there. Again, I agree the number from Berk being so far apart isn't as credible as yours, but it was the same car at the same dyno shop so I can't discredit their effort in getting accurate numbers. If you and berk both send me catback and HFC's I'd be glad to hit the dyno for an all-day session comparing the 2 and then I'd send em back, but I don't think you guys will be up for that, lol. Plus you probably have someone much more local that could help out if you wanted to do a head-to-head.

With the forced induction, I have a point of reference for that number based on personal experience between a crush-bent muffler shop job in 2 1/4" piping compared to a 3" Blitz Nur spec turbo exhaust which was only a 6 whp gain on 12psi of boost in an SR20det. If the boost on this 6-cylinder responds that much differently to it's exhaust, I'd be glad to say I am wrong...I'm just going off of my personal experience right now.

However, IMHO when you are trying to launch a product, you have to dyno the car in its true form (Stock) and anticipate that everyone is stock when they buy your product. This is the only way to have true real gains. What if someone called and wanted to buy their cat back but already had someone else's cats. You cannot give them a definitive answer on gains because you have nothing to compare it to. For them making more power, show me a dyno graph where they made more than 305 with their high flow cats and cat back. All I see is a 296 number. So you cannot say that their combo makes more power.

As far as the boosted aspect, it seems I am getting nowhere with you on that one so I will concede for now.
