Message	You are telling me that the delta in a stock 300zx TT between your after market exhaust (let's assume quad tipped for whatever reason) and a Borla is going to be ~20hp??? I mean, I'd assume a Borla system would give you some performance improvement as well, maybe ~5hp-10hp to be conservative on a TT. That mean's you'd expect your exhaust to produce 25-30hp extra from stock, right? I guess that's not too insane, but I'd figure the HKS Hyper or whatever would flow even better than yours (ignoring quality of sound), and I'm pretty sure they don't give more than 25-30hp max.
