How did greg at www.custommaxima.com get a 14hp gain with 16lbs of torque?

 

I am not sure how they got those specific numbers, but if you read the dyno plot carefully, they say they tested it with a cat back exhaust. So, the only way that I know they could have gotten those numbers was measuring stock then with rt cat, some kind of cat back exhuaust and possibly an intake. I've heard a rt cat by itself will shelve out 2-3hp and should only be done after y and by pipes.

 

it was probally like stock, add y pipe, intake, catback, and then he got that... i dont know.

 

I dont remember where on the forums but a couple times ive read the rt cat gives only 1 or 2 whp..Thats a big difference from what custommaxma is saying...Im glad I do my homework on the org or id be one upset maxima driver if I bot an rt cat thinkin I was gonna get 14 hp!!

 

that dyno was done by Random Tech and supposedly it was with a cat-back already....

 

I was wondering about that high HP gain myself. Didn't think it was accurate either. Glad I'm not the only one...
