so how do you explain my HP increase (increase in power was 5k-7k rest of powerband was the same), that is the only Mod i have since my stock dyno on the same dyno? i'm pretty sure it fixed my boost leak due to stock bov.

you explain yer up in hp by your having a less than tolerable bov stock. now wtih a more competant bov you make the "proper" hp.

how do all the people notice a mere 7 hp... i dont think i can truly tell a difference.

the best part of the 1g is that it is flanged.
