Default does anyone think it might be a loss of backpressure from the exhaust.

Default Did you e-mail him? He said mine was in the mail this week.

It can, as it will hold boost better, so you get more of the boost, it will help in stumbles and the like, and not leak like the OEM and so-called "improved" OEM part do.<p><img src=" http://www.inkarchitects.com/Company/Images/Portfolio/moments/portthumb3.jpg">

Default thats really the only diffenences between the cars

he altered 2 airways in and out which is better for the car but does the changes he made go better for bottom end or top end. any cars compared at top end within alomost 50 hp will run together from a rolling start of around 60 mph. and they will be close evertime. This car should be about 30-40 hp more than a apr chipped car with nothing else. diverter valve won't bring back at least half of that hp.<p>john

Default not nec. true. The diverter may be blowing at the rated .8bar.

That .2 will make quite a bit of difference, especially when there is usually a bit more than 1 bar at max boost during spikes. The stock diverter flat out blows (pun intended).<p><img src=" http://www.inkarchitects.com/Company/Images/Portfolio/moments/portthumb3.jpg">

Default that would be the same in both cars.

at almost top end the car is not pushing enough boost threw to effect the diverter valve. I could see at the lower end this might come into play.<p>john

Default Could be the wheels - heavier wheels and unsprung weight make for a slower car on acceleration.

Default sometimes adding an intake actually decreases performance, or so I've heard.
