I'm not racing people on the street on a regular basis, I could care less if my car is 1/10 of a second faster in the quarter mile. I do care how my car "feels" to me and how it drives. This option made my care "feel" better to me, which in my book makes me Happy.
Ditto. I am very happy with the Plenum.

Real HP gains equal objective dyno testing; A nice shiney aluminum air duct w/ a 'throater' sound is priceless!

I was in Birmingham last October doing the RTJ Trail w/ a bunch of golfing buddies. Great area and super golf. Didn't get over to the Barbour museum or track. Not enough time.

Botox, I've probably done over 1000 dyno pulls on 2-stroke engines (yes, I know our 3.8's aren't 2-stroke) but I can tell you that a dyno run is not nearly as scientific as people want to believe. You can have an engine that screams on the dyno, but sucks on the track. And, my use of the term "throaty" had nothing to do with exhaust note. "delivered torque quicker" could be used in place of my "throaty" reference.
Call Greg, tell him you want to try it out, I'm sure he'll make you the same "Try It" offer. See what you butt dyno tells you.
