have you driven with this part installed yet? notice any small differences in response/sound etc? are you running a cbe as well?
I was driving it around with intakes as my only mod at one point. The sound definitely changes at WOT, it sounds much better over stock. It would be hard to actually feel something like a 10 hp difference.

As far as power, I originally intended on getting my baseline dyno done, but things didn't go smoothly. It was the first dyno i've ever had and the machine was sometimes reading the TQ and sometimes it didn't. The only run that came through with both hp/tq readings showed 262 hp(ridiculously low) on dynojet. However, during one pull, i swear i saw on the monitor that it pulled 272hp with no tq readings, but later he said 262 was the best. He probably said it because it was the only one that showed up half way decent. So who knows...

So after my intakes and CBE, I brought it somewhere else. There it managed 289 hp on a dynojet as well.

My first dyno experience was taken at night and it was much much cooler outside compared to the second dyno. Also keep in mind that these two dyno's were at different shops.

I just got my hfc installed, so after headers, pulleys, and tune(probably @specialtyz). I can compare it to some other VQ37 dynos that they have done.

I hope this gives you some idea.
