Congrats on the new addition!

Not sure what Borla hands out in the way of extra hp... should be easy enough to find on google though.

Stillen boasts 13-15 HP at 5200 and 16-18 ft/lbs at 4400 rpm

G-whizz,I believe the stillen is 21-23 HP and torque for the sedan (Guessing you gain more because the coupe mid-pipe is less restrictive). I would love to know what the borla adds in comparison for the sedan. Anyone know the numbers?

Whiteyclay,Do you have Gtech times before the mod? Is the sound level modest?

This is what i found out so farsome sites say:"14 additional horsepower and 11 ft. lbs. of torque"while other say:"7-15% Horsepower Increases"---> this one gets me. 7-15%.... Lets round it off to 10% to make it easy and 10% out of 300hp is 30HP.... in which i do not belive that this exhaust will give...unless i take the cats out and put test pipesbut then again i might be wrong...Anyone find anything let me know.THANKS

I'm bout to go for em soon to ask them some questions about a future S/C mod.

And your suspicions are right, exhausts will probably give you 1-5hp 1-3Torque at most if that, intake/hi flow cats/exhaust systems are all the same, they're not made to make you fly out of a line with a small investment, just give your car a deeper tone.

Also remember what your car produces at the engine isn't what it produces at the wheels. Your year car has somewhere around 230-240whp if I remember correctly.

Maybe ure right that 03 sedans have 220 or 240 RWHPthats not my only mod in the car...

So far i have:Borla exhaust Mrev2 lowerplenum5/16"spacerstillen airbox with ztube.so by now i should definetly have around 300HP

Right, but the intake won't give a % off your entire HP, it will just compound on top of your overall HP.

With all those mods you should be on par with current gen G's if not a smidgen better. You should look into a turbo , around 4-5k for your year. Best investment in terms of bang for buck.
