True Honesty

[THOR]

Hey Ted, Check out Corsa Touring or SPORT. The only difference I hear is when you step on it, the Sport will be louder and meatier but with a more european sound and not the muscle car sound like the B&B, etc. Also, no drone on the Corsa products due to their inherent design. I'm not sure you will see a noticeble difference in your giddy-up. According to John and Larry at Auto XTC, it also takes about 20-30 starts before you will see a difference in performance (CAI, headers, exhuast, etc.) This is due to the onboard computer chips adapting to the new hardware. I think I got this right but please check with our mutual friends about this. Best of luck. Mark

It's posts like this one that reinforces my statement to prospective clients that dyno numbers in and of themselves are not the "end all be all" that most forum guys think they are. Dynamometers (chassis and engine) are simply tools, nothing more, and are subject to error and/or manipulation.

This being said, have you tried a different shop, or spoken with other clients of this shop? Perhaps it's simply a calibration/operator issue and you might be chasing ghosts...

Hope you get it sorted out...
