So I was browsing headers, and stumbled on some absurd claims.
They started off with this:

" DYNO TESTED AND PROVEN "

( 17 + HP / 33 TORQUE )


Ok, could be reasonable, but keep reading:

You should receive anywhere between 15-30 extra HP. And the sound is the unmistakable Racing Championship

Umm, bumped it up by about 10hp did we? That's getting way to high for headers for the Tiburon!

But if you add more to your system:
QUOTE
Add a cold air intake and you will see even more gains, top it off with a 2.25" exhaust system and gains will be right around 45BHP or 37hp at the wheels.

Forget turbo, I'm getting headers!!

That's not funny... It happened to me once... lol

That is the biggest load of... Sound power i've ever heard. Sounds like one of my friends. He has a celica, intake, header, exhaust, pulley. He went on the sites, added all the supposed HP, and went from 140-230 horsepower. Man! It's not like they had professionals tuning the car in perfect conditions or anything... right?
