You mean 300lbs after the decreases you likely saw with the bolt-on.

And I'm curious why you have to 'feel' the difference. 40hp (if we're talking to the wheels) is 15% (if I use 250hp to the wheels as stock) increase. You also shed some weight in the process.

I find it hard to believe that the combination didn't have some kind of effect. I've always heard that racing, be it drag or track, is about shaving tenths off a time...that would do it.

SPOHN I'm curious what's behind your question. Are you happy with your car with FI? I'm trying to understand why after going FI with one you didn't go right to it with the next. ...great thread by the way.
