    Here is the reason the ls1 gains more power from flowing more air through the exhaust because its a much much larger engine opening the airways does alot more for it than a 2.5liter. The STI gains so much power with bolt ons and a tune is because of the tune raising the psi. The trick to a good tune is raising the psi but still keeping it reliable which is what data logging is for.
    LOL, now it's not ALL of their dyno's, just the AWD one?! Wow...

    Yes like i said they make generic tunes but atleast they have a tune you had none and made more than there tuned car. Doesnt make sense

    The name calling thing was a joke from the movie knocked up, i was playing

    I would never call your cars numbers inflated, arent you the guy who took a 340whp s2000 and 450whp maurader with your bone stock convertable ls1 car, you must be making 400whp stock LOL

    Uh huh. Seen the movie, it was as overhyped as your knowledge of Subaru's....

    Honestly, I could care less what you think, I'm just surprised that knowing NOTHING about the place, and knowing that all cars don't perform the same (the car stock was considered a freak by other local STi guys, ESPECIALLY one who had a Cobb "tuned" car that I would consistently pull on) you are able to call their dyno's into question....

    Have no idea what I'm making stock. Never said I took them, much like other times in this thread, you obviously didnt read it well enough, I hung with them yes, but they were the faster cars if given enough room I'm sure.

    So let me get this straight your not disputing that a stock STI puts down 230-240whp on a mustang dyno but you believe that you 05 sti with full exhaust and CAI put down 290whp on a mustang dyno. So you gained 50-60whp with 2 bolt ons and no tune? It just doesnt add up since its been proven many times that the big hp gains stage 2 STIs get over stock is from the TUNE which you didnt even have

    No...I said 30whp assuming around a 15% drivetrain loss on those cars. I have seen STi's dyno around 250-260awhp on several DIFFERENT (this means OTHER shops) dynos around town. Since I didnt dyno it stock, I guess that unfortunate cause you can't call those inflated too.

    I NEVER specified what STi's make stock on a mustang dyno. I try not to make blanket, unfounded statements.

    Lol, we are just having a good ole debate. Well i can tell you that shops dyno is high, i just talked to brian at auto-motion inc and he said on there mustang dyno stock 05 STIs put down 270whp and 08+ put down 280whp. Those are 30-40whp over what other mustang dynos dyno at. so yes the correction factor on there dyno is HIGH. Show me an AWD drivetrain that only looses 8% getting the power form the engine to the wheels and i will show you a contract from subaru asking to buy your AWD system lol

    So lets subtract 40whp from 290whp and boom 250whp as i have been saying this is what your car should make this whole time

    Brian told you that? Well Charles was the one who dyno'd my car, and this was some time ago when it was done, and I'm telling you they weren't putting down that much then. Honestly, I'm surprised to hear he said that. LOL @ you calling the shop.

    Yea, its good to joke around like that but there is always crazy women who will get jealous of a car and or bike and do some damage. I dropped my buddy off after a long football game and as i pull up we see his 06 r6 laying out the ground with huge dents and cracks all over it. I left thinking some random person did it the next day i found out it was his now Ex-girlfriend who said he rode it too much.
