I think he is an idiot who:

1) Does not know the diff between WHP and BHP.

And

2)Is severely over estimating how much power exhaust gives him.

Destroy his "360 WHP" POS in your true mid-300s WHP car and laugh at him.

Street > dyno. If he thinks he has 360rwhp, he'll think you have over 400 when you burn him.

Nice avatar by the way.

I say, bet him the cost of a dyno pull. Its win win. You win the argument. He gets a baseline to see where he is at and hopefully he will find out he needs a tune and he will make plans to further improve his ride.

Offer to front the cash if it does indeed put 360 to the wheels. he cant turn that down and you dont even have to come off as a hater.
