Holy crap!!!

Instant HP off the line, right where you want more.

I can't believe they don't come this way. Lots of power.

Can't wait to do cat deletes. They should be in any day!!

Not sure, but very, very noticeable. An absolute must for a simple bolt on mod that gives so much. Can't imaging all that new power to the wheels still being absorbed by the engine components.

In this thread (fourth post), engine builder Jake Raby says that he has measured +5HP at the rear wheels when using a UDP.

We see this number over and over again with the 4" pulley. The UDP is THE best bolt on for net gains available.

Does it have any more/less impact on the 2.5/2.7 motors vs. the 3.2 motors, or is it a flat 5HP due the common ancillary components used on all engines?

What's the second best?


p.s.
While you are(n't) endorsing products, do you mind sharing the make of the UDP that you use in your testing?
