Re: B&B PRTS QUESTION (Vette#4)
An article about a year ago in Corvette XXX mag showed a before and after 12 rwhp (most forum members don't think they really get that much, but there was a before and after dyno same car/same day.
My 01 coupe with the PRT's and Vortex cold air added picked up 15 rwhp before and after dyno runs. I do admit the dyno was different, and the car had about 1000 more miles on it, but I believe the results to be pretty accurate based on what I saw other cars dyno at on both days.

I have them with a blackwing and can't say I really notice anything. They say like 10+, but I'm not feeling it. However, I love the look and sound and that made it worth it. Hope you enjoy them :cheers:

Don't do em for the HP do em for the sound and looks, do someting else for the HP to back up the sound since you will now be revving it often :yesnod:

Re: B&B PRTS QUESTION (zoomnz)
I didn't notice much HP on either the PRTs or the RTE66's. PRT pamphlet shows the PRT has an average over various RPMs of +8.5 (and RTE 66 +7.5) but I didn't really feel it. Did feel a bit of extra power with the Vortex however. Looking forward to 4.10 and possible ATI.
