223whp & 207tq

[Meir]

can't find this thread, but someone already did it.
the dyno shows +5HP with the car desnork .
however, some say it is not accurate since the dyno is done when the car is stationary. the assumption is that the car gets "air rammed" when on the move.
so basically some claim the desnork is not adding any power despite the dyno results.
i think it doesn't really matter. it sound good, and you are definitely not loosing power.

Actually, some of the learned folks on this forum (Mr.Raby I believe is one) claim that overall there is a loss over most of the rev range with a desnork. There may be a certain rpm that shows a gain, but overall I've heard it will slow the car down...even though it may sound faster.

New exhaust is already on the car so no joy. Sorry. Best I can do is offer a comparison bw a mostly stock exhaust and headers/bypass pipes added.

Later I will add the CAI, udp, and ipd plenum. I will dyno after each. Hopefully it will give decent data.
