This is the down pipe that I have. I cant see it adding anywhere near that much. 2-3hp max. I was enthused to get it but kinda of disappointed at losing so much bottom end and only gaining a 2 or 3 more thousand rpms of usable power. The biggest mod i have really felt was Brian Honnolds home made enrichment module. That thing is well worth whatever he would charge....at first test I tought i broke my tach the thing spun up so fast. But I do have just a 1.8 16V.
