Re: TPIS Long Tubes (JJF)
I've not noticed this with my car. I can definitely tell the car is stronger and I have the dyno chart to show it. In my car, torque really starts to increase over stock at 3,500 rpm. I don't think its ever lower than stock.
I wonder if your perception is due to the surge in torque that comes in at 3,500 rpm, where as the torque curve was flatter on the stock car. This may make it seam like the torque was down before the surge.
