MNBoxster thanks for better explaining the shift points that I was referencing on being smoother.
You said it best, but, on point, as the power and torque curves change through the RPM range from the upgrade, the shift points can change (early or late)
On the reliable comment, just posted what the vehicle seems to do in comparison from when I drove it of the dealer lot and the past eight months.
Dyno meter is the best way to go but for the price I paid felt it should be done once the headers are in and it has been re-flashed.

Believe or not, hp is not what I primarily want from REVO.
I was planning to get Sport Chrono. Some people call Sport Chrono a gimmik, but I liked it. (Not the watch on the dashboard though).

Well not after I had a chance to drive REVO'ed 986 for a day. I have to admit I was very impressed with REVO. With added hp if any, I call it Sport Chrono with steroid for the same price or less (and no watch). No I don't buy "Less PSM" argument.

I'm still on the fence because of lack of information on warranty and emission issue. If somebody have experience or more insight on that, I'd appreciate any comment.
