How much HP gain?
 

Hey guys, im posting this because i havent had the time to dyno, but im sure i will in the near future. I bought my 2004 6 speed and i believe it had the l flash. I now have the N. I have a Revi intake installed on my car now, and i have just ordered some maxground grounding wires. Additionally, i will be getting the RB ram air duct, and reflash to R within the next 2 weeks. What do you guys think my power to the wheels will increase by over when i got the car stock when all the components are in the car?

Revi intake
RB ram air duct
Maxground grounding wires
reflash to R

Out of curiosity what do the lineage drounding wires do?

What do you mean by that? Do you mean how many horses they give, or what their function is? They replace the grounds that come with the car, and are shorter, thicker guage. Faster throttle response, brighter headlights (hopefully), smoother idle, louder stereo. On the lineage website, their grounds added 3 horses on their dyno run (but im not expecting that).

By the way, if anyone has a revi, ram air duct, and is on the newer r or s flash, please post what you feel.

I say about 5-8 hp. Grounding won't do much. HP gain from REVi & Ram Air Duct.

S flash is out already? I can't keep up with these things.

y dont u just go get it dyno? theres not gonna be much hp difference and u probably wont even feel it. everyones car is different, everyones ecu is different so go get a dyno.

and S flash is not out... latest one is R or so it was 3 days ago

15HP

9 max Revi
2 CAI
4 max Flash R

Dynos are not a bad idea, but the ram air intake will not show any improvement on the dyno becuase the car is not actually moving. After I installed mine I dont notice any difference until maybe 40 ish mph. I think you could see 15 hp but that would be at redline where you wont feel it that much. I notice a good difference espically when passing other cars. Realisticly I would plan on apporx 10 hp.

Thats pretty much what i'm expecting, a good useable 10 horses. Maybe 15 peak. I need to organize a group dyno or something, because i want to see how much power i have !!!

This was POLAK's results from REVi intake & RB exhaust (& a 2nd one with this stuff & flywheel). I would say about 10 hp at peak is realistic. Anyting more is stretching it.

thanks... i needed a good laugh

This is what im really expecting

3-4 from the revi
1-2 from the ram air duct
1-2 from the grounding wires (Maybe)
and i dont know how much for the flash, but the last time i got reflashed to N i felt quite a difference, so i know something changed. Estimate 3 horses.

Which brings the GRAND TOTAL (LOL) to 6-11 horses, depending on the flash.

i agree ...

i'll say 6-8 for the complete intake, nothing for the grounding wires, and nothing from the flash (got my recall work done today)

I just want to dyno at or slightly above 190hp
