    Which is RRMs policy. You will never find a Dyno on their website. Most of their numbers come from independant dynos from customers. Like me, I was the first in the nation with the piggy-back and I installed and dynoed it for Rock. I then posted the results. Rock and Brian (RRM) obviously do their own dynos for tuning but never post those sheets.

    His stock pull of 140.87 was almost right on with my math. My estimate with a 15% drivetrain lost was 142.8. His drivetrain lost was roughly 16.5%.

    I guess he showed "ok" gains. It was only a 7.45 whp gain and a 8.18 wtq gain. Most of that was probably all in the exhaust. Now you slap Works "unproven" ecu on it and you might see an additional 12-15 hp. Which would be right at 160 whp. I think a safer guess on the Injen CAI is more like 5 hp as well with the RRM header. So that should put you at about 170.... maybe. It all depends on if the mods play nice with each other. I thinke it was Jake who had the older gen lancer and had about $8k in mods and only showed like a +12 hp gain.

    also remember the higher the horsepower the more you lose in the drivetrain because its a percentage. :(
