Do you have a dyno sheet for that 5-6whp gain from your Works mid-pipe?

take there dyno's with a grain of salt. Remember when they tried to push there drop in filter claiming 10 hp and when other vendors offered to dyno it if they sent one over they ignored them.
I personally wouldnt buy a thing from Works for this reason. Just look at what they make there exhaust parts out of and for what they charge. Nameless has kept this community involved the whole way of the design of there exhaust system whereas Works just releases a single dyno showing us what the final product is. For all we know this could be the worse stock run compared to the best run with the mid pipe.
When a vendor like Nameless and other say the mid pipe provides no gains and you see a vendor like Works who tried to make rediculous claims on a drop in filter and charge double just for the sake of sales. Who would you trust/listen/buy from.

This isnt the first time they have made bogus claims. Theres a reason why there Works drop in filter thread got locked. It would of stayed open if they would of just let someone dyno there drop in filter instead of ignoring. Giving away 1 filter to dyno to prove your claims will sell 100 more. Lots of companies do this when they stand behind a product. When a company doesnt want to send a filter away because they would be losing money doesnt make sense when they would make more back from the free advertising. That is a huge red flag right there. Why claim those gains then when someone offers to dyno it for you you refuse. Its obvious they knew it wouldnt of made such gains. Look at Airaid.. they sold a bunch of intakes before anyone dyno tested it and made a killing. They even showed us a dyno but most vendors are lying pieces of shit who show bogus dyno's for the sake of sales. And Works claiming 6 whp for there mid pipe IMO is full of shit when you got other companies who are well respected on these forums saying otherwise.
