I have before numbers with and without water/meth on a 45F morning. I will use the same dyno but the temps will be more like 80F for the after. Still, if we see nice gains in 80F temps, then still nice to know. The only other variable is my car was having fuel pump/filter issues and the hp might have been lower than what it should have been. On the graph you can see a lot of timing being pulled at the top because of the fuel issue. Either case we will learn something from the new dyno. I will do before headers without water/meth, with water/meth, headers and no water/meth, headers with water/meth. Another variable is that my tune was updated to a new version...better.

Yayyyy!!! My set of V2's will be here tomorrow

Sooo at least we know we share the same production run if anything goes wrong lol

This is actually first of me seeing them stamped with Supersprint on them,
I never knew they did that, I don't think my X-pipe has it (but its still sealed in the wrapper, I didn't open it yet and Ive had it since Feb)

Thanks Johan.... I will document results to the best of my abilities and $$. As far as install, I will ask my car doctor at Alpine auto to get some picks.
