[QUOTE="DuffManRHA, post: 10993146, member: 42542"] No offense, but a claim from the manufacturer means nothing, especially when we are talking about relatively small gains here. They could easily do a test w/ the spacer on, and then test w/o the spacer... but by then the car is hot as hell so of course HP is going to go down. Dyno numbers are easy to skew, so thats why its key to get a 3rd party. Take cold air intakes for example - I can guaran-damn-tee that when testing those, a lot of cars have their old air filter full of dirt and are run on the dyno for a baseline. Then they put on the cold air intake and get a lot of power, but most of those gains are just from having a clean vs. dirty filter, and from a high-flow unit vs. a paper one. How much did the actual cold air intake tract itself make? Probably negligble, especially on a car like ours that pulls cool air from the fender anyway. You forgot the HHO system, and the magic Ford 5.0 that gets 100eMPG :lol1: [/QUOTE]
