Questioning dynos isn't bashing. There have been legitimate questions posted in this thread that have so far gone unanswered.

The flywheel and pulley making 26whp to me is even more unlikely than the original thread stating the full exhaust made 40whp so it's logical and within reason to ask for more evidence and clarification.

If members don't ask questions and make vendors prove themselves and their parts then we are doing a disservice to all of the other members here.

Since you are buying the system would you be willing to dyno the car, swap out the parts and redyno? If so you can provide some independant validation of what they are stating here.

Come on Mike, post up some answers in here. You were told to do so by Ichi so let's see them.

If you can't come up with info for whatever reason send me the header back, I'll dyno my car as it sits, swap parts, redyno, swap parts and ship your parts back. I have very little interest in having and exhaust for noise concerns and I'm not biased towards anyone so the results will be honest.

Same, I can do the same, and also have access to a dyno right down the street (literally 5 min. away)

I'm having to look over this whole thread and go from there. Yes I was also looking for a local with a stock car. I think this is going to clear up a lot of the B.S. in this thread.
This stuff just takes some time to get someone in here to run their car.

As I get some updates I will post them.

Also, I want to thank Ichi and Dave for being so helpful. They've been in contact with me throughout this process of trying to set things straight. Good to see the management is solid!

Vivid:

I'd love to see this at a dyno other than at your shop, but it's far, far better than the current info. Looking forward to your response to my post as well as the results of whomever does do the testing.

Im not bandwagoning, and had no history with the previous thread. I dont know much about cars, but I know enough to raise an eyebrow when need be. With that being said, can someone please explain to me how a pully can make 26whp? Im sorry, but that sounds about as real as unicorns. What previous car EVER made had such a restriction gain from a pulley alone? Please enlighten me.
