No, the ROW tune gives you more HP. The cracked oil tube has nothing to do with the SAI error codes, so that needed to be fixed. I just meant that a working SAI does not give you more power and if it fails to function (assuming no vacuum leaks) it won't cost you any HP. The ROW tune stops monitoring the SAI so the recurring codes/CEL stop. It also gives you a few ponies as an added benefit.

I just dyno'd my car (2000 S, rebuilt motor with the ROW tune, snorkle delete and Che exhaust, and a SAI that would otherwise throw codes) and had 254 HP at the rear wheels. I didn't get a pre-exhaust dyno and I don't assume that the exhaust added much HP over stock. But 254 at the rear wheels ain't bad for an essentially stock 3.2.
