I looked into this further and it's pretty clear they have been tested and it trends toward more high end/less low end as you go from the 350 to the 150.

Hey peoples! I'm super excited, because my ACE 350 header, front pipe, and CSG x MXP catback are arriving tomorrow!

I recently had my car dyno'd, so after I have everything on, tuned, and dyno'd again, I'll post the before and after results.

The car was dyno'd with an intake and throttle body, so it's not a true baseline, but better than none.

I installed the CS400 w/Delicious tune a few weeks ago and am hoping to get it on a dyno before the new year.

Awesome! Also doing the Delicious tune, but then I'm going to have a local club tuner dial it in on a dyno. I'm interested in seeing the torque difference with the 400 against the 350.

Did you get the chance to dyno it yet? For now, how's the driving experience with the CS400?

I haven't dyno'd it yet. The driving experience has been great. It's much more fun to wind a gear out from 3000 rpm instead of downshifting.

You will thoroughly enjoy the sound your car makes with these on. Be aware there will be some light smoke on 1st start up. At least there was in my case.

Thanks jasonjordan, it was actually installed about 2 weeks ago. Yeah, the sound is improved and the sound level is a click too quiet which could end up being perfect after next season's track events. Took several revisions from Delicious to get it dialed in because the engine kept taking timing. It's a way different car now!
Their customer service is phenomenal, every revision came back to me the day the log was sent. What a great, professional company.
