Yes it is lol.They have a guy that will cryro it I think thats what they call it and it suppose to be able to hold the extra power but I will never see those numbers so no big deal.Now after tune I will have to get a clutch soon its not rated over 300 torque.And as some people know I'm not clutch friendly.

Gotta love the guys that say it pulls 310 hp with this mod, 340 hp with that mod, and 350 hp with this mod. Start putting on the parts, get it tuned and dynoed, and then talk about numbers. Every person's car is different, especially when it comes to boost and tunes. I've seen some Mazdaspeeds dyno 210 hp stock, and some 260-270 stock. elevation, temperature, tune, leaks, cels, and even lemon cars all mean you can't go off of what people online have dynoed at. I could easily say that my car should be 330-350 whp with slightly higher torque, but I don't do that because I simply haven't dynoed the car with all of the mods on it.

My question to you...is if you are driving the car properly and doing the break-in like you said you should be doing and that you are doing, then why are you saying the car is feeling slow to you? How would you even know if you are granny'ing the car around? That doesn't make any sense to me.

You completely missed the point he was trying to make.

Every car is different. You can't expect to put down the exact same hp/tq as 10 other guys unless you have the EXACT same build and EXACT same tune, in the EXACT same climate as all 10 other cars.....there are a lot of variables to take into account with all of your research.

Yeah I understand but these different cars come from all around the country and have basically the same mods different brands and such and there all within 10 hp and 10trq of each other thats why I put the median of the ones I saw I just didn't pick the highest and say yeah thats me. But I'll drop it doesnt matter to any of you none of you guys drive a slowbalt.
