When they strapped the car down on the dyno bone stock, it had an impressive even 300whp/320tq. I knew that the downpipe was going to help make a good chunk of power but I was not expecting this. From simply installing their Sport Cat downpipe, not only am I not throwing any CEL's or voiding any warranty, I was able to gain an extra 30whp and 30tq, bringing my cars capabilities to 330whp/350tq; and boy does it rip! It is a completely different car from one simple modification.
Okay, guess I have to be the villian and call BS on the 30/30 increase without a tune. Sorry, but that is very wishful thinking. If you said 12-15Whp, then I'd say that is possible. 30/30...nope! FAB is pulling your leg being a newbie.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but they can't even come up with specific performance gains on their own product listing. I'd be leery of those guys.
