it's stock pipe with oem resonator.....


theres actually a lot of factors, depends on what you have in the car.... that why i dont believe in putting all available aftermarket bolt ons on your car will produce hp.

my car had filter when it was dynoed on a mustang for 179whp and i wanted to save weight, so i hacked the oem mufflers and welded my own pipe using less turns/restrictions and of couse leaving the oem resonator and dynoed at 193whp.....

but of course, theres other environmental factors as well (i.e humidity, barometric pressure, temp, etc.)

hmmm aint that something

I guess everyone should buy Ken's exhaust. Sounds like low-cost but high hp gain.

Didn't think temperature would affect it that much unless the car was heatsoaked. But I am hoping the power is for real though.

no im talking about outside or shal i say humidity and temperature of the dyno location.... dyno calibrates depending on the humidity, temperature, barometric pressure.... so for a single dynometer, it could throw a high number one day and low number the month after.
