NastyBoxster, irregardless, I think it's still an effort to post your dyno results and list your mods. It goes to prove that mods do help to bring the stock BHP up somewhat. With regards to $ per BHP, that's really to each his own. If I can get 8-10bhp across the entire rev range, I'll gladly pay $3k cash!
However, Jim & xclusivecar do have a point in that it makes NO SENSE to compare your after mod dyno figures with another stock car figures. There're many variables that can easily affect 2-3 bhp eg. new plugs, engine oil, humidity, temp, etc. For the benefit of all and to convince yourself that your money is well spent, do a before/after dyno. That way, you can tell which mod helps and which mod actually don't. That's who I found out the GIAC was making my car LOOSE power instead of gaining. I sent it back to get the stock program back and got my money back.
Jim, if one talks about lightening the car by 100lbs, well, that'll affect it's everyday livability won't it. Carpeting removal, passenger seat goes, carbon hood, inner door panels, air-con compressor, fan unit, etc.
