UMmmmm yes they do, the CF driveshaft decreases rotational mass thus allowing more power to the wheels. Shorter gears may not add power but you will feel the difference. Look at dyno sheets for lightweight crankpullys and flywheels, you can even see power gains on those.

No, you are reducing inertia which allows the engine to spin up faster/easier. An inertia based dynamometer will show gains for these modifications.

The engine does not gain power from these modifications.

Is this a tuner or complete kit?

No matter what you say you will see hp and tq gains on a dyno when you slap on a CF driveshaft, lightweight flywheel, pulley, and some lighter wheels. They might not add power to the engine but it will increase numbers.

It completely depends on the type of dyno if you will see gains or not.

And who masturbates to the thought of their hand?

Yeah I stumbled upon that earlier today. How much did you drop on them? They're pretty pricey!

I dont think u can call that hp gain. But just allowing the engine to transfer more power to the wheels that was lost or already there. Gaining hp is totally different.
