(and the extra low end isn't helping acceleration numbers due to lots of wheelspin now) I hope IC helps top end a bit because the stock turbo needs it lol

In for results!

Shouldn't definitely see good gains on top end, especially in the real world.

Dyno's typically don't have enough air compared to what you have on the road/track.
