I will dyno my car versus yours anyday...you have no idea what you are talking about...if you actually seen BO's porting you might think different...i am talking mirror finish...and i ran 12.94 at 108.5 stock weight with a lid, so you might have some catching up to do yourself...let us all know when you start running 11.72 at 115.4 with just some shitty bolt ons, i guess close to $15 a hp is to much to pay...sorry to be such an *** but you are ignorant...like we trying to convince a ricer that our car is faster than theirs...

I tell ya what, I will put a properly done TB up against any lid or pulley...anyday. Ive been at the dyno too many times and can say it without even thinkin it over. Ill put it up against a LS6 intake swap too, 30% of the time it doesnt show any gain doin the swap.

my car still has an ls6 intake and a shaner ported throttle body. maybe i should sell it and get a stock one til i can afford a 90mm.

I don't mean to bash anyone, but one should not bash against a mod until one has personal experience with it. THE INTERNET/DYNOS LIE

I don't know how valid my gains are since I'm comparing horsepower numbers from two different dyno jets.

Bone stock at TT Performance was 294.51 RWHP, 314.05 TQ, 12:1 a/f

With Thunder Racing's ported throttle body at Harris Speed Works was 297.7 Max HP, 345.9 ft-lbs, 13.1 a/f

The Harris Speed Works dyno graph shows much higher torque than the TT Performance dyno, but the horsepower numbers and air/fuel ratio should be somewhat comparable.

The whole thread is here:

'02 A4 Z28 w/PTB dynoes@298...after SLP lid, dynoes@303...after SSRA2, dynoes@318!
