I would be willing to bet that the wheels probably made a bigger whp difference than the intake/exhaust did...

Overall design seems very similar to Fujita SRI. and what's up with no heatshield?
As for the 18hp gain...yeah I'll believe that when a member actually tests it out and posts a dyno sheet.

You are wrong. The Status Elite intake gets 20+ to the wheels.

^^^^ FInally people are realizing the "Claims" of these companies are typically less then accurate..

R2C is the only (to the best of my knowledge) to come out and say they tested 5 cars and produced gains from 1hp - 14hp and several in the middle...

All cars are diff so any intake co. guaranteeing a certain hp number is wrong..

That video is 100% bs.. why?

Since the car was on the dyno, then the dyno graphs woulda showed up straight away on the PC and the video cam would've zoomed in into them.

And because 18rwhp is too much for short rams
