Just curious, are the gains shown on the dyno typical of what people would get with a nameless header + tune?

Wow. Those cliffs look 1000x steeper than pikes peak. Not to mention much narrower and much more big boulders and rocks that are very close to the road. This makes pikes peak look like disneyland. Amazing.

Besides the extra ride height it looks like they trimmed off the lower portion of the rear bumper behind the rear wheels. Which is probably a good idea; this past weekend I had a co-driver at a RallyCross and he attempted to remove part of the rear bumper by tagging a berm with it.

They look like BOS dampers maybe, they are one of the few I'm aware of where the hose connects at the top. $$$$

The exhaust on the rally car is not typical of a street driven car in that the exhaust is only the header with a straight pipe -- nearly 0 restrictions. As restrictions in the exhaust are added, I would expect the gains to reduce a bit, but I believe you can still expect a huge torque gain right in the stock torque dip area, and the torque/power gains and curves to be similar throughout the power band. - Bob |

Updated race standings, added additional photos and videos.
Check out the latest video - it's a hill climb stage on dirt/gravel that begins at 11,000ft. and climbs to 13,500ft.! Serious unprotected drop-offs everywhere! - Bob |

These engines are pretty hard on oil, and that was a big concern knowing the car would be running @7000+ rpm for extended periods of time. He is running Motul 300V 5w30, and has changed the oil after each race day. - Bob |
