Sorry, I don't believe in butt dynos...
I can make your car "more responsive" just by changing the pressure in your tires.
Get the dyno numbers and we'll see how much of an advantage it is.
Right now, you're just telling us it-just-feels-better?
I'm just telling you to prove it.
Call me hater or whatever, but I wanna see numbers.
Sorry, I'm not into believing every Tom, Dick, and Harry's claims on the InTerNeTz...


-Ted
actually i do have some numbers...


these were posted over on the other forum a while back. Here is the dyno with the front mount.. BNR stage 3, boost turned all the way up, turbo was maxed trying to fill 2.5" piping. my IC piping runs were fairly straight too





and this was with teh stock TMIC at 15psi, i did not have the ARC at this time:



same setup except for a mild streetport from rx7world. Keep in mind, this is on the dyno with little to no air moving through the IC. and the tune was a lot richer. I am now running the ARC so the numbers should be even better


and it isnt cool to the touch after an autox session, its hot enough to burn you! lol But on track days on a road course it stays cool when you are actually at decent speeds. autox doesnt really work well with tmic location, not enough air flow

sent2to, sorry dont mean to jack your thread, but i think this is relevant
