Check out this thread, and let me know what you think. I was under the impression that there were significant benefits of having hard IC pipes. Perhaps not direct horsepower increases, but less pressure drop across the system. Or have I been decieved?

A lot of people judge a cars performance when looking at paper by a car's max HP and torque figures, more advanced people look at what RPM you reach these levels.
you also have to take into concideration: -how fast your engine revs -how smooth the horsepower/torque curve is -how long max HP/torque levels are sustained .... improving any of these other factors is also a gain in performance thus even if the Dyno max numbers are identical, what other factors change with the product in question installed -------------------- You CAN sleep in your car, but your CAN NOT race your house!!!
