You have to have data to backup what you are saying. "Feeling" and "buttdyno" are all in your head. Maybe some difference, but I got to see some data.

Thank you. I'm getting so sick of these placebo threads, I rarely come into the actual Engine subforum anymore for this reason in particular.

It's not up to someone to prove you wrong, because you're not right. It's like coming in here saying, "My car has 1000HP because I know it does, prove me wrong". You could gain 20 hp from anything in general and you're not gonna feel it. You definitely aren't gaining anything at all from this, so you should feel nothing.

so what you saying is anything someone would do to gain 20 more hp .they wouldnt feel it .then i think everybody on this sight should stop writing .we all have some kinda of feelinf for our cars thats why we post .so i really dont understand what you are saying. eerybody on here posts that they did this and that to there cars and state they felt something .im not trying to argue with you all im trying is to state something that no body has tried .and since i tried it and dont have a dyno in my basement im wrong .but maybe someone tried it and didnt gain nothing and can tell me im wrong i will shut up

110 HP. Must have come from dilithium crystals placed in the flux capacitor dilineal flow modulator valve ducting.
