Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I was looking at GMG's power kit. They are here in Santa Ana, Ca. - GIAC Software Upgrade w/2 programs - 91-93 and 100 oct. - Sport Air Box - Sport Exhaust Manifold with 100 Cell Catalyst and Sport muffler - 35+hp gains That seems like an option and an inexpensive one at that. I have sports exhaust so I wouldn't need the muffler. 35-40 HP is probably enough to make me happy. Does anyone have any experience with this? Or thoughts. Appreciate it.
They are usually on the pricey side, but they do good work. I would price out other shops for the same items, most will beat there price. Try Vision Motorsports(Dwain) or Hergesheimer(Eric).
I don't think you will get 30-40hp to the wheels with that set-up. It will improve pedal response, sound, feel. You will have to weigh those against the price to see if it's worth it to you.
Thanks. I will investigate further. I need to call around for sure.
If it was that easy to "bolt on" 35 HP, I think Porsche would have done that already. FYI, the Porsche "Carrera Power Kit" X51 option costs $16,900 for a gain of 26 HP versus standard engine.
AND - do you think you will feel 20 more horsepower? really? I think you might hear more horsepower with a better exhaust and call it good - just my opinion
