Default Re: 19.8mpg after HC removed!

Just an FYI for you guys that didn't read the intake mod thread -

I had my truck dynoed again and got some good results. I put down 322hp / 334ft.lbs (up from 305hp / 315ft.lbs baseline with just a catback exhaust) That's a 17hp / 19ft.lbs improvement! Furthermore I gained a fair amount of midrange torque. I'm sure the catback combined with the intake mod is the key to these gains. Unfortunately the jpeg file of the dyno run was corrupted, so I couldn't open it back up and the dyno operator didn't save it on his computer. I may go back and do another couple of runs after the truck gets a few more miles on it.
