        i have to agree any pnp work done will have increases no matter the application i spent hours on a flowbench and porting my 93s heads and got 35% better flow out of them i even did my uim and lim and tapered out my throttle body opening. and according to the high performance teacher at my school 75% of your hp is made in how well your heads flow and your engine breaths

              Holy crap those are some nice welds. I would be tempted to make a 3rd one just to mount to the wall like a piece of art!

                Do you know about the Cone merge bullets that you weld inside the collectors? I put a set on, will they help ? Who knows, but the salesman thought they would.

                      I did a set using them and removed them after to note any differences.

                      Didn't see anything "jaw dropping" to keep using them for what they added to the cost. Although, if you add up all the little things you could do to improve something, it will make a decent difference in the end.

                        yeah, i saw them and decided it wasnt worth the cost to add'em. im excited to see the final results... was talking to a few people and sounds like i should get some decent gains and lower the EGT's
