OK, all jokes aside I love this kit for my Auto Z, that's why I went this route. But let's be honest this kit is very prone to heat soak. With Hp swings from 30+hp to 30-hp real quick. That's why the Frozen Boost Intercoller is a must to help keep intake manifold temps in check! Lets take five pulls for example with Cats on and then five with Test Pipes on and you will see more consistent HP with the Test Pipes. I use the 9lb pulley and Test Pipes with my set up and see almost 10PSI. The heat the Cats give me, I gave into the Test Pipes equalling in less heat and more consistent HP even thought I might have gaven up a little PSI. At the end of the Day it's not always PSI that will get you to the finished line, but to keep the heat in check with consisted numbers that will win the race! Again at the end of the Day with less heat, the Test Pipes proved more consistent HP for my driveability.
