It wouldn't be if you would get what Dinan really advertises and not less than that ... lol .. plus it is only 5mph (107 to 112) :biggrin:


In my 2001 camaro .. I trapped 107 w/ just a lid (air filter and box) .. I dynoed at 316rwhp / 345rwtq (something like that) .. After a cam, headers and exhaust (stock catback), pullies and tune I dyno'd at 382rwhp / 379rwtq .. so effective 66rwhp and about 34tq gained. After those mods, I trapped at close to 113mph ...

I know it is different cars, but I would think if someone could actually get the HP/TQ advertised by dinan you should get a 5mph - 6mph gain in the 1/4 ..
