Dyno and Magnaflow Xpipe and Catback Video
Here's a video of two dynos performed today, best run bone stock was 361rwhp in 3rd gear. Added xpipe and street series catbacks made by magnaflow, power crept slightly higher to 364rwhp.
However, axelbacks alone saved 22lbs from stock setup and ofcourse the sound improved.
Next...CAI?

I know it is an auto, but the power seems very low IMO. I wonder how much of a factor 3rd gear pull and auto play in this? It is a great sound though.

361 RWHP bone stock with an A6 is about where it should be, IMHO. Besides....dynos are not designed with the idea of comparing a particular car on one dyno versus another particular car on another dyno - variables beyond the car itself can and will produce different results.

Plus 361rwhp = 428hp total... Which is freaking awesome for a 5.0 with just axlebacks!
My '10 did 298rwhp with pulleys and a JLT CAI and Steeda Axlebacks

I was referring to the stock power - 361 RWHP with an A6 is right where it should be.
As for how much he picked up with the X-pipe....well....you have vendors that claim a certain HP for a certain product, and then you have people that pay their own money for said product and the dyno passes. While one test does NOT create anywhere near enough data to draw a final conclusion - which result would you be more likely to put the most value on: Those that tell you what their product is going to make so that you will buy it, or those that tell you what a product made AFTER they bought it?

So far the only mod that looks like its worth the money is a tune. Exhaust and CAI look to gain minimal hp for the buck. CAI looks to only net 6-8rwhp and the X-Pipe that i have seen gains 3-6rwhp. Need to see what a legitimate gain is with full exhaust, not vendors claims.

We're doing an article for a mag but we're not going to make up numbers. I was impressed just with the weight difference alone for the axelbacks. However, when the article is published you'll notice a distinct broader curve on the graph despite miminal hp gains. If it were 100% my money, I would have went with the Comp Series Catback system, those axelback have almost no muffler at all, maybe that would help and the xpipe we used was not offroad.

Also, I'll be doing some more 1/8th mile runs tommorrow, so if I beat my best time of 8.672@84.17mph, I'll credit a better flowing exhaust system, cause the Driver sucks. LOL.

I know I need some! These stock p-zeros have no grip on the track...
