I never trust butt dyno power estimates from anyone that got their drivers license after 1968.

212 whp! According to the butt dyno. Haha. But no really how much does a dyno cost usually? I'm tight on cash after my last few purchases.

Dyno pulls are around $50 depending where u are. Some have dyno days which are free and some people just flat out hook it up.

so my wheels are about 2 1/2 -3 lbs lighter than yours. And my tires are lighter. So you would go even faster. HAHA. and mine would sit a little flusher than yours since you're wheels are like +53. And I'll give you my rays duraluminum red lugnuts with em. they shave a couple pounds off too.

Well, I wasn't a fan on the power the rotrex made on the low boost. High boost kit has some good numbers but its hideous. Still doesnt compare to a turbo at the same psi.

^ well the thing about the rotrex kit is, you can still save a ton of gas on the low boost. For some people, you'll get your money back in time. For me, I would drink gas lol.

The Rotrex is a big ole thirsty hog with a throttle controller set on SP-7 mode, but on Ec-5 it uses about as much as it did stock and is still much stronger.... I am using the stock exhaust right now instead of the 2 1/2" axle back with a 12" glass pack.... The upper mid range and top end is suffering a little and the road noise is coming overwhelming in the rain but I am less likely to attract unwanted attention.... I have been looking at mufflers and resonators that might balance things out....It is hard to not want to drive in SP-7 mode even though the fuel gauge drops from 1/2 to a 1/4 tank in 30 minutes of blissful back road insanity.
