If you added a turbo and a 100HP shot of nitrous then you couldn't definitively say how much power the turbo gave you. That is a fact.

If you baselined, then installed parts, then tuned, then changed fuel ratios, and now you're going to add test pipes, then no.. you can't tell me your "gains" were from your parts.

I understand there was an issue with the install, there always is. I'm just saying that you have to use a method that would show your potential customers definitive gain numbers for your product and your product alone.

I don't care. I was forced into vender status. I make $26.45 on each TB to answer a hundred emails and then box, paper, tape, ship, track etc. it's not really worth it but I dont mind in my down time. I'm only trying to help others and many have asked and even told me to sell closer to Z1's cost but I wont! I have a day job.

your 'magical' gains are as legitimate as GTM's group buy until you provide proof. I like to give a benefit of the doubt but doubt is all you have proved.

You realize that most CBEcost around 1200 upwards to 3-4k for titanium versions and as others have mentioned more gains for the buck so to say.

Pictures of the dyno's or this thread is useless.

I agree. I have one pic of the owners before and after full tune/day in STD. I want parts only in SAE. Still waiting unless my wife finds it in my car. Last night she sent me my dyno from last week.

Gains you all speak of are irrelevant. A cbe does nothing if you have every bolt on possible. This is the case with CAI and test pipes. All can show amazing gains in the beginning but the more you do the less you make. Most CBE aren't worth their price when a local shop or buddy or you can do it yourself.

seriously man... you need to invest some time and money into business ettiquette and marketing 101.

It's not contradicting. I'm not here for money! In this modding game people will get their feelings hurt and will have their bank accounts hurt like most people buy things more than once, ex different wheels, test pipes, headers etc. very few buy once and are happy for life. Like coilovers. Maybe $800 BC's are all you can afford. A year later you can swing $4000 jrz's. This is what I meant.

Sure. I've never taken money to do a clutch, these TB, intakes, turbos, NOS etc on any friends or someone's car! I just like doing it with friends and a beer. Get the kit and swing by.

Omg you don't read. We base lined, tuned! Installed parts and ran that base line. The car knocked so we pulled timing without a run for just the parts! No different then installing a turbo kit and not running it without a shelf map! You can't drive to the tuner on 1000cc injectors without doing something to the tune! All the parts knocked or his cats knocked or whatever but we had to change the timing. In the end we have a base for the day, tuned stock, and tuned with parts. It's no different than showing a TT kit make 500hp at the end of the day when everything's set.

And as I said before! In a week we'll do it ALL over again!

Wow, This sounds like a reality show, so much drama here over some mods.
Everyone has great expatiations, but the gains that have been seen sound about right for the work that was done. I speak from experience, having built spec engines with minimal modifications allowed by SCCA. Of cause freeing up the exhaust will help with increase the volumetric efficiency gain in cleaning up the intake. You may want to check the fuel delivery system, fuel pressure, for you lean out issue.
I'm interested to see how this turns out because this has become my winter project on my street Z, I have a spare upper which I just finished cleaning up, next is the lower once I find one on the salvage market.
Have a good day
