The real difference of the older stock cars ('13 - '16) with the '17 cars is 5 hp. Additionally, you're saying that the bolt-ons and tune on the new car gave minimal peak gains. If we subtract the 5 hp difference, then I would expect that the peak gains of the same parts on the old car to be also minimal.


My overall point is that the argument "the old cars were not efficient from the factory" is nonsense. It was just a big greenfield for the aftermarket scene and some vendors exaggerated the results for their own benefit with specific products.
13' stock tune sucks ass. Rich on the top and lumpy on idle
