| The IC/piping dynotest was done on the same car, same dyno, same state of tune. They were done on consecutive days of which both days had similar environmental conditions and the SAE correction factor was the same on both days. In fact, it was actually cooler by about 5 degrees on the day we tested the stock IC piping and Stillen ICs. Both days we used the same fuel, high-volume cooling fans were placed in front of the intercoolers on both days. There is NO possible way to perform this test on the same day given the complexity of and time-consuming nature of swapping out the entire intake plumbing and ICs. The fact we did it at similar times in the day on each of the two days AND that both were using identical SAE correction factors, I COMPLETELY fail to see where your claim that this was not an apples to apples comparison. I dont see how much more of an Apples to Apples comparison one could have achieved next to ours. In fact, I've never seen anyone to date do testing like this on IC's AND piping simultaneously. The only other closest test I know of was, oh wait (you're gonna love this), yep - when I did it during the time I was working with Z1 and testing my development of what is now known as the "Z1 SMICs" - comparing them to other aftermarket units.... While I also could stand to strongly argue your points on the water injection testing, ECU testing, etc as your statement is making it appear as though I'm just blowing smoke up everyone's ass with the results (which is not the case). Your accusations are preposterous.
