I had a dyno done after I had my supercharger fitted and was also down greatly on the power. It turned out to be the dyno was carried out incorrectly. Have a look at my old thread here :: Linky
Some times under gay circumstances,
Dynos arnt setup right for the car type or engine type..
However the better one is .. Dynos are Not 100% accurate in telling you your HP..
Its all about calibration, some dynos over read.. other underread...
:)
been many an argument on dyno outputs on here........
Wouldnt call it an argument ;)
More like a heated discussion!
over this side of the water people have been up on court because of it

well the best option is to never drive fast in snow ice and fog its just not worth it .
think about it if your driving to work and work is 60 miles away if you do 60 mph that journey will take min of a hr . if you do the same journey at 50 mph it would take around 69 mins .
for the sake of 10 mins and being extra safe id just not rush . i like my car to much and do like to let the back end out when im in a controled envirment .
you could buy the racelogic traction controle system with launch controle seems to be quite popular
What Type Of Exhaust System Should I Get?
in Altezza Club
Posted
you dont need a huge exhaust for big gains once the pipe from the manifold back is straight and about 2.5" for na 3" for turbo ud be fine
the hks silent is a lovely one if you can find one.
