Imagine Auto's Stage 2 Kit claims 23-28 HP and 25-29 TQ gains for $2200.

If the muffler alone is showing 10 HP on the dyno, I would think that adding a chip and air intake should easily add another 13 - 18 HP

I am considering taking a trip to IA this spring and having the Stage 2 installed with a before and after dyno.

I'll make sure to post the results to see if it was worth it or not...
