I think there's 240whp in there... Not only did the header and exhaust system add horsepower, HP didn't drop off on the top end, so adding revs... Well there's even more HP than we first thought this engine was capable of...

OK, I updated the 1st post for everyone. Added some photos.

As for a catted version. I will work with AP on Monday to get something in the works.

Shit, wish I had time to come down to the Vivid/AP shop today. I gotta see/hear/experience this in person!

empower-auto · 07-20-2012, 01:24 PM

I want to see this dyno tested again. Same day, all other things being equal.

Prove a skeptic wrong

Exactly every single bend and weld counts, high quality will always make an exhaust system gain more power. I have no idea how other companies tested their products, but i know for a fact you guys scrapped like 5 exhausts until you found the perfect one!! No doubt in my mind this car can make that amount of power.

Not going to happen. We did this yesterday. And its now today. So we can not test it again in the same day.

Really I posted what was asked for. I will let the public that buys, installs and tunes prove you wrong. Otherwise its never going to be good enough and we are going to be chasing tails..

Yeah that's what everyone told the civic si guys when they said 280 - 300 whp wasnt possible na... This car hasn't been out for even 6 months and all this has been done so far... Imagine 2 years from now...

Well anything is possible with a built motor, cams, etc but you guys are talking about a 50% increase in wheel hp with bolt ons and a tune.

I would love it but i will be realistic and say 200rwhp with intake, header, catback, and tune. That is all i'm hoping for anything else would be a bonus.

I guess when I see these results duplicated a couple times I'll be a believer

I was only able to get out there for a bit while all this was going down. Catted I will ask them in the morning.. I know that is a issue for some. I am also from California.

But everyone here should understand that these motors respond very well to some key parts. If you spend the time and do your homework. You can find power. AP has done this. Jason the his crew have done a outstanding job putting this all together. This was not his 1st system ever made. AP makes systems for lots of cars. Ferrari, MB, BMW and so on. When you see the time and work put into this system and I mean work. Build, dyno test, redesign,dyno/street test, make adjustments, dyno/street test. Lots of time and work has been put into this system. Its not like what you see on T.V. Build the car in a hour. This system I think was revised 5 times I think .. (Its late)

The systems are going to get out in the public. The "truth" will come out then right? So why risk anything?

Are you running 93 octane? I swear I saw dyno results showing 165/170, 10 more hp with 93 over 91

.

I dont dought the gains you claim. This is a new car and the parts are going to keep beating each other.

Looking forward to seeing some catted dyno results!!

I'm just waiting on the competition now, gonna be interesting if/when somebody drops better numbers after everybody jumps on this.

EZWood · 07-20-2012, 02:02 PM

I stopped by the shop and talked to Michael @ vivid for about an hour, he is very knowledgable, and honest. The car had 855 miles on it and with the I/h/e it sounded amazing. I'm not a huge fan of the burned tips in general, but they looked great on the blue car. I have no doubt these numbers are legit. It idled quietly and had a nice deep tone at revs. This system will find its way to my car within a couple weeks.
