    what kinda gains do you think???

    I'm gonna dyno my car, totally stock, in 2 weeks. I am then going to install my little mods : M30 afm, 19lb. injectors, Mark D 19lb/93 octane chip, IE headers, 2.5 straight pipe, and then do another dyno run.

    What kinda gains do you guys think I will get???

            If you do a dyno before and after thisll show how great or small the returns of the mods are collectively. I am glad someones doing it.

                  Depending on header style, 5-10 peak hp tops. Midrange should improve substantially.

                      thats what I am thinking about, would they be substantially better than the shorties?

                        So, it's a waste of money, not worth, instead a turbo worth every buck spended.

                              considering that the injectors/AMF cost less than $100, i think that is worth the money SPENDED lol for 5-20 hp.
