Well , you gotta have faith at some point . If ya wanna be that way , then
how are we "sure" that our daks put out at least 230HP (5.2) or 250HP
(5.9) ?

if they can put it on paper , they are risking being sued for fraud if it's
untrue , so I would bet that it's pretty damn close to whatever they claim
, as long as they will put it on paper .

Well, the only way to be sure is to put your Dak on a dyno (or use a
G-Tech). Some guys on the list have done this, and I can tell you with
absolute certainty that they didn't get the numbers that CC publishes. I
would love to say that my Dak (5.2L) had 230HP stock, but that doesn't
make it true.

I am not telling you that they didn't get 13HP gain on the dyno (you can
make a dyno tell you just about anything), but I would be very surprised if
you get that much. Hey, prove me wrong, I would love nothing more than
to get 13HP from a new intake setup. A G-Tech is only $140 - about the
same as a before & after session on the dyno.
