well they are suppose to add bhp... i suppose its who's made it buddy, ive heard some say on here that they didnt notice the difference but then the ones in the zone shop are suppose to add 12-15 bhp i think, also proven

*EDIT*
They do make your system sound quieter but i think you will need to let it bed in... around a fortnight i thinks 8)

it was custom made by powerflow, i did notice a little change in the acceleration, very smooth through the revs,
