Thanks guys,

unfortunately its gonna be a week or so before I have time to put it on, cause I'm gonna be out of town next weekend. As for power, I'm not exatcly sure how much it will help but 'm hoping for 10-15HP, especially higher in the RPM's

you'll probably get maybe 5 HP tops off that exhaust. Exhausts just don't give you that much HP.

Well normally you get very little hp off of an exhaust, but his car is a turbo car so he will probably see in the 10-15 hp range he is looking for.

That's probably true for Honda N/A motors, but with the turbo he can probably expect more than 5 hp. BTW, very nice exhaust. How much did that cost you compared to one you could pick up around here?

On a turbo RX-7 they do. He should see 10-12, maybe even 15.

might be a good candidate for a before and after dyno run then. Do you get bigger increases than say 5 HP on a supercharged honda?

It was about $450.

As for power, I wouldn't be surprised if I see even more than a 10 - 15HP increase in certain areas. Right now when I run 12PSI I can't hold 12PSI over 5.5-6K because the stock cat-back is choking off flow. With the new exhaust I should be able to hold 12PSI all the way to redline, and maybe get a bit more boost. The difference between 10 and 12PSI is approx. 30-40WHP so I could potentially see that big of a jump in certain areas.

I saw a Supra gain 72 wheel horsepower with an intake and a 3inch turbo-back exhaust. I went from 285whp to 357whp.

Well boys the vote is in and this thing KICKS ASS. The fit is great. It sounds great, nice and mellow at idle, absolutely no drone at all, quite cruising down the highway, and she screams BACK FUCK UP!!!!! when you stand on it. It may be a bit loud for some people's taste but I love it.
Nice boost in power according to my finely calibrated butt dyno, as well. With the stock CB I was seeing a max of .64-.65 Kg/cm^2 when really pushing it. Now I can hit .64Kg/cm^2 without hardly trying.
So if any of you are thinking of going with an exhaust similar I would seriously consider this one, you won't be dissapointed.

BTW: I'll get some pics of it on the car later tonight.
