Little on the high side IMO but they are just numbers. I know for a fact the SOTP feel was way better after headers. Best mod ive done.

Congrats. Looks like you are the first to provide dyno numbers for the OBX. Gains of 22.97rwhp & 23.67rwtq are not bad, especially for the price.

YOU CANNOT COMPAIR NUMBERS FROM DIFFERENT DYNOS.... CAN NOT!!!

Even if the same maker, you cannot compair one persons numbers to yours directly. The amount gained maybe. But even to compair THOSE numbers... Car A would have to have used the same dyno on compairably the SAME weather for both a BASELINE and Post Mod Numbers.... Then Car B would have to do the same(Both Base and Post runs on the same dyno). Then the numbers could be compaired on seperate cars/dynos, as a % gained from Pre to Post mod.



Read this http://www.modified.com/tech/modp-09...son/index.html

It will help explain SOME of the reasons why bragging/compairing DYNO numbers is RETARDED!
