Thats so un-American off you, as the wife pointed out a dyno sheet is a lot prettier than a time slip

Good to see you still around Isellem

Yes he had the Gintani on during the 251 Dyno. But, it had nothing to do with the numbers.

i garuntee if you put a stock intercooler on that car and ran three dyno runs you would see that the intercooler made a GIGANTIC DIFFERNCE.

And as Danny posted earlier :

And It dynoed @ 176 back over two years ago.
Then with a Gintani intercooler got 198.

If the gain from the Gintani was taken from the equation the 251 would net down to 229 which is in the stock valve head territory . I know it is not as simple as that and maby vary one or two HP but you get the drift and by avoiding it so do we. I really do not think that Jan misread Johans post but I suppose we can give him the benefit of the doubt again .


The Gintani is a good intercooler.... I wish it wasn't so much $$ because I would consider it.

Pre RMW's head / header with Gintani= 198 WHP
Post install of RMW's head / header and ??? with Gintani = 251 WHP

What I'm I missing.

The way you all spend money I wouldn't think $3500.00 would be anything for more HP.

You just about have it actually but there is one more configuration

Rmw head / header and NO Gintani = 230 or less

I think that is fairly obvious ?

more whp no ..... I think about 250-260 whp that is consistent is my target..... I have been chasing it for a few years now and after next week at LDG we should hit it or be very close..... My IC solution to maintain that power while driving the twisty roads of N GA and NC....is now up for grabs....that is why this thread is so interesting to me..... the second version of the DFIC optimized for a 235+ car sounds good as I still belive in the concept of DFIC

THat has been the rap but I don't think anyone has really documented it.... that is part of what I hope to learn..... someone (like you) will counter the claims..... you have the MM?
