Performance Part Testing Roundups!

Thought that I'd put together another compilation of good threads for people here in PH.

What I'm looking for are comparisons of performance parts. Preferably with DYNOs to back them up. So far, we have the GSC Header and Axleback tests (thanks guys

I PM'd GSC about doing a full header-back exhaust comparison between the 3 companies that offer them (CC, ZPI & Draxas). Hoping they will

Ya... that would be good. With s-pipe and all. And we also need to get some intake numbers up there.

I didn't specify the Megan Racing Full exhaust because they don't have an S-pipe and for an exhaust (header-back), I'd like a one vendor solution and currently only the 3 listed above provide that.

Now if the test were performed using the MMW header (wink-wink), the S-Pipe would be included and then the test field could be broaden. But I'd imagine if they decided to do the test, it would be with the Alphawerks or stock header.

Well it would be nice to see ANY numbers... even with the two sets they did, I don't think they included all of the options - especially with the exhaust... you'd think TRD would be right on there at least. But that's OK. Like I said, we'll appreciate ANY testing people can do and post numbers.

I really need to catch up on my current events.

Even better, a 4-way comparison!

Updated with 400amonth's info. Split it all into two sections. If you have some good dyno runs and have posted the info (with pics/scan of the run), let me know what you have and give me a link.
