[QUOTE="oscar, post: 163779, member: 2757"] there will be a difference in the dynometer readings, as to how much exactly ... cannot be discussed right now, but knowing what gains can be had with the ktec exhaust + panel filter (i think we all know the realistic gains) you could expect upto 15bhp or 18bhp at an absolute maximum with a remap. i am only going on the assumption that by full ktec system you meat ktec manifold all the way to the backbox!?!? we all know the numbers that a catback system + remap gives, assuming the car was well maintained and was already at the 130 bhp mark or thereabouts. as a rule of thumb a good exhaust system matched to flow will gain you 10% maximum of your engines power in N/A form. 10% of 133 is 13.3, so 12bhp increase in your dini seems about spot on. i think it's fair to say we all know ktecs figures have always been a bit iffy, but they still as a whole do good work and regardless of my oppinions on them.
