I don't think it was the bolt on's. Something is wrong here. That stock clutch can handle a lot more than PnP, cai, exhaust, ect. Either it was a bad clutch assembly, it was abused, or someone doesn't know how to drive stick.

Haha. Coincidence maybe? I know pnp will yeild some power just didn't think it would be to that extent.
Pnp'd my manifold and runners and really didn't feel a drastic increase in power. But my manifold wasn't "fully pnp'd" so hopefully if I pick up this manifold I Will feel a great increase.

I will eventually; just haven't had time. True me when I say this thing makes power; as good as the deletes if not more. Another evident is cars that I could bearly hang with; I'm pulling on them like never before....i.e. 07+ GT's, Challenger R/T.

I was unde the impression this was a true pnp im but it looks like just the intake port and exit ports were pnp'd. I did this to my current IM with a dremel. Now Im Not so sure in buying cuz idk what would be the difference?
To the member who did the work, how far in is it pnp'd? As much as your dremel could reach or?
Sorry jut don't wanna drop 300 and see no gains..

What other mods do you have? I have everything with the exception of force induction. All mods compliment each other. Miss an ingredient, and it's not felt as good as the full deal.
Sorry man; I don't buy it. It's too much of a coincidence that it happen right after both Eric and myself install. I would believe it if we both were over 110k; he only has about 50k or so. My clutch has been performing fine before. Besides, the power bump is just that huge!

^what he said....
I got mine from 05AcTL and he bought that from "thewanderer" I guess. That is my only mod for now with the CAI. I admit I don't have other bolt ons. The power is definitely felt when compared to stock but it does not blow you away or suck you back in the seat. I can not believe that when coupled with every bolt on you would have that effect either. I want to guess the gains to be in the vicinity of 6-8 hp/8-12 TQ by doing IM alone. With all other bolt ons you are looking at 10-12hp/12-14 tq on a good day. Again all these numbers are on rick's neural dyno, so this is still open to a debate.

Good lord...
Am I the only that envisions the "spacing" continuing until we're cutting holes in the hood so the many can hang out...?
This mod does not yield 15-20 HP.
The engine breathes pretty well as is.
You've done nothing to open the the throttle body.
... I could go on, but this is just crazy talk.
Butt dyno's don't count. Anyone that quotes a HP increase by feel is full of shit.

I'm usually skeptical about these things as well. But the proof is in the pudding. I would not lie about gains and mods that effect my car. This mod is one of the best comparable to the deletes. I might have exaggerated with 15-20 hps, but I'm sure this mod made 10 tops!I'm not some newbie just logs on and start typing bullshit just to get attention. I just here to pass on some good info and mods for others to enjoy. If I did not feel this mod made a difference, you would NOT have heard a peep out of me.
