215 WHP on pump gas?? Most quality headers make around 190 WHP on pump gas with complete exhaust and a tune on a dyno jet (including THIS header on the already realeased dyno graphs with header + tune).... 25 more WHP is unreasonable by just adding OP FP and catback and retuning.

I will say it again. People have unrealistic expectations for this header.

I think unrealistic is getting it in a reasonable amount of time, lol.

I agree with seeing how the header performs either untuned vs the stock baseline, or with the car tuned prior to putting the header on and then retuned after installation. This is the only way to show how much power that single part is making. If a stage 1 tune on a stock car nets 10-12 hp, to some it looks like the tune is where all the power is coming from and not the header itself.

Besides eliminating the dip, or making it alot smaller and at a lower rpm, the header only gained between 8-17 hp after 4500 rpm which could be mostly because of the tune.

Stock untuned vs the header tuned for a month and a half is not the best comparison for gains from just the header.

Anyone expecting big peak gains from a 4-2-1 header will likely be disappointed. This is more about mid range power than top end power.

This is the reason I love this header. I honestly couldn't care less if it wouldn't exceed stock header hp levels up top( and obviously not the case here), as long it beefs up the middle.

I am that guy. Had to deal with winter weather the past couple of weeks in the NW. Installed and tuned yesterday. I could not be happier with the outcome.

The header is dyno tuned. My car is setup to perform in both a NA and FI environment. Unfortunately all dyno runs were completed in a FI environment. The tune steps down when running in NA Mode. It is really unfortunate NA data is lacking during the tuning session. If it were available I would feel comfortable with the team that tuned the car to provide a review. It is my honest belief that an appropriate review cannot be done. All in all the header produced gains through out the power band in both TQ and HP.

Now if you guys want to crowd fund me and hour of dyno time I can give you all the information you want. If not I am sure the next person that receives their header will post more than enough information for people to love it or hate it.
