Message instead of "any" more. to me, 10-20 hp is NOT what you should expect if spending $5000 for mods... i would consider that very close to stock hp levels.

: the engines ability to flow the air. since engines are nothing more than air pumps, with forced induction you will gain hp at same boost level by allowing the engine to flow the air easier/faster/smoother. combine that with fine tuning mixture and timing and reduced reciprocating weight and you will gain significant rwhp at same relative boost level.

gain *some* rwhp, yes... "significant rwhp", well again, i don't consider 10-20 rwhp significant... there's at least that much noise and variability between dyno runs... and it definitely is not significant considering all the money put in for those mods.
