Anybody having luck with any of these parts or packages? Are the hp claims somewhat similar to those on the site?

I'm sceptical also of the HP gains. You'll get some but I doubt that you will obtain that much for those mods.

I heard SR motorsport's hp claims are not true, and that their stuff are wayy overpriced

The SR motorsport intake isn't bad, you'll get good results if you use it with racing beat air duct. You'll have to do alittle modifying on the SR motor intake so that it fits perfectly with the racing beat air duct.

The overall performance gain is noticable, and the noise from the intake is alittle more aggrestive then stock at WOT.

i think they are over priced, and there is no way you can get 37 hp from a CAI, highflow cat, pulleys, and the cat back.

I had their pullies along time ago. Instead of the claimed 12 hp, I got 1-2 hp across the rev range. All their claims are absurd. I do have their flywheel, as I bought it off someone at Sevenstock.

SR motorsports has a pretty poor reputation on rx7club. I've read a few shady reviews dealing with them and have been convinced enough to not even purchase their products used. just an FYI..

Has anyone bought the exhaust flanges?

bottom of the page ----> http://www.srmotorsports.com/RX8_Per...tem_Parts.html

I want to fab up my own exhaust, but don't really want to hack up my stocker just in case I need to revert back to it.
