K guys... it's getting pretty annoying, so I gonna restate it again.

You like it or not, our boss, Hachiroku gave EVERY vendors/shops clean slate in this forum. Yes, I've read several other forum's negative stuffs, complains and etc for hrs & hrs, but it's other forum and not here. Vividracing knows if they fuck it up, they'll get hammer by Hachi without hesitation.

At first I have to be honest. I thought this smelled like bullshit. But now that it's clear that this is not just an exhaust, but headers included with cats eliminated its not out of the realm of possibility.

Curious about the flywheel.

I remember reading that they were doing clutch/flywheel dev/testing for someone.

I wonder if they forgot they had a lightweight flywheel when they did the exhaust/header runs. It would show a pretty universal gain across the powerband.

Might want to check that, guys. Could prevent some mis-communication on power numbers for future customers if that is the case.

I've been following this thread since the beginning, reading, and lurking and finally there has been mentioned 2 of the things that have been nagging at me.

First off, with 5 different versions of the exhaust there has been 0 recorded data on any of the previous individual part revisions? How major are the revisions between v4 and v5 that none of the last data is valid enough to post some of it? Not to mention that you should have seen in the forum that you were about to drop a bomb on us and have been prepared. Yes there is video of the dyno that has been run, but that doesn't show us anything.

Secondly, my issue is with the dyno. The first thing that leapt out and hit me was that the baseline was mirrored in the modded run. Peak for peak and dip for dip. That just seemed odd to me because in every other dyno I've seen, the baseline curves are near matches while the modded runs are all unique, changing the peaks and curves.

we are all skeptical because you're bringing to market an exhaust that more than doubles any other exhaust we have yet to see. This excites us, and confuses us at the same time. While we hope your results are true, we still remain skeptics because it does seem fantastic.

The quickest way to settle the naysayers would be to take your vehicle with it's stock exhaust to an independant dyno, run it, bolt on your exhaust, run it again, and post the results. If you get similar results I promise your systems will be backordered for months crushing the competition. They will probably be buying your exhaust just to reverse engineer it and see what voodoo magic you're using.

I dont get why so much people want this to not be true LOL, and need all kinds of different personal methods of validation. When the system comes out, it will be proven good or wrong.. Let's stop the bullsh*t... and just let them post other videos and dynos as promised.

Man.... WTF

I don't think we don't want it to be true, in fact it think it's the opposite. We all want a 1500$ bolt on that will increase hp and tq 25% untuned, but we remember this is the internet; the land of bs and porn.

I hardly think taking anything to an independent testing facility is a personal validation method, it's a time honored way to let someone without an interest in your outcome to prove your point. I don't care, and can wait for it, but if they did this I guarantee 30 exhaust orders within 3 hours of the data posted.
