How can they give HP numbers when they haven't even built or tested these yet? Guinea Pig anyone?

Those HP and TQ numbers are about right for a header upgrade but that's only half the story. This mod is a wast of time unless you have the exhaust upgrades to go with it.

agree with pukka, having headers and proper exhaust definitely compliment each other. But I think most of the members here have aftermarket exhaust so it shouldnt be to bad.

15-20whp should put us at a right range ~300hp, and no need for supercharger.
