With a turbo setup your biggest gains will be seen with a larger and better flowing exhuast system.

some peoples cars make more or less hp with the same bolt ons engines vary, they all dont make exactly 155 hp. and yes on a turbo engine you can get 20-30 whp fom an intake and full 3in = exhuast those two things have lots to do will your turbos efficiency

you know I was reading some dyno charts with a mustang where a guy switched to a dual disc clutch with a super lightweight flywheel, and he actually lost a couple HP on the dyno.Weird.

not really sure why he thought a clutch and flywheel would add hp...but if it was only a couple hp, it's probably just b/c no 2 dyno runs are the same..

a lighter flywheel can free up some horsepower in the same manner of a ligher crank pulley. but yeah the dynos were probably on different days. weather plays a roll.
