I'd like to see a dyno graph showing the before and after torque curve. I'm having trouble finding one though. Anybody know of one?

It makes a bigger impact on the butt dyno than it does on the car really, like a placebo effect (almost). It will increase throttle response/immediacy on the sti and open it up a bit in the uppermiddle range of the powerband, not to mention it sounds great

Similar effects as unicorn blood or adding decals to a car?

We just tuned bone stock (and I mean NOTHING changed) 2011 STI last night. The car picked up over 50hp and 80 lb/ft of torque at the wheels on pump gas. These 2011 cars are killer.

I can't wait to see what mine gains are after the Invidia turbo-back is installed and I get a dyno tune. My tuner is predicting a gain of 60-70 awhp over stock.
