I'd want to see dyno proof.

Can private advertisements be done for false claims?

I wouldn't even bother asking for dyno proof - you simply don't gain over 65hp on an H22 engine with the mods he's quoted...

Let's see, the only effect of an ecotech valve is to make a farting sound, so lets pay extra for the delux one with a silencer attached!

is that the max power bhp calculator?
engine (obviously start with the manufacturers figures as engines don't lose power )
induction Kit +10bhp
de-cat + 10bhp
downpipes + 10bhp
exhaust + 10bhp
err that makes 245bhp at the fly
err even though it only makes 195

Guys...

1 word....Stickers.

They should be good for some "Awesome" powa.

I also thought "lude" was something you used when you wanted to stick something where it shouldn't go.

Cool. Hang on then.

Engine+induction+decat+downpipe+exhaust+turbotimer+TRDgearknob+bits-of-fiberglass+PHsticker = 350bhp.

Hurrah.

(Isn't a de-cat and a down pipe the same thing?)

not on the FTO, it has unequal downpipes from the tranverse V6 manifolds to the back of the cat.
as they are now equal length its *at least* 10bhp

As for Fecotec(k) (keck) (kak) valves whatever, if i want an air leak in my induction pipework (ooer missus) then ill drill a hole someplace relevant rather than PAY for the privelige of some overpriced piece of doggypoop that farts everytime i hook another gear......:shakeshead:

I like the um...............................nothing. What happened to the steering wheel?

My little nephew has a vtech. It is small uses lots of batteries and doesn't have wheels on.

That guy obviously has the modified version.
