I'm shopping power pipes and came across this dyno graph showing a 54 HP increase from head porting...but, wait until we read the fine print...turns out they put in a new shortblock, TB, and headers too!

It would be nice if they'd do one car with ONLY the different heads, and not changing anything else.

NUNNELLE.004 1997 Cobra Vortech S-Trim S/C kit with Aftercooler, AFM Power Pipe, 80mm Pro-M, 38lb inj., Bassani Hi-Flow X-pipe with cats, Bassani cat-back.



NUNNELEE.026 same as NUNNELLE.004 except AFM Stg III heads, DSS short block, FRPP big mouth throttle body and FRPP headers - same tune.

You dummy, you're not supposed to read the fine print, lol. But that's the way it goes with advertising. Be glad you caught it. There's a reason why they say "Let the buyer beware".

I think it was just an average customers car and not a dedicated "project car" to dyno test a product. We should be greatfull they included the fine print, most places don't... I'm still waiting for the 25 HP from my mufflers, 15 HP from my K&N and 20 HP from my headers
