I think they are absolutely worth the money and I'll have them back on my car soon.
I'll post details when I throw up the Dyno Results thread, but for now lets just say even though I was a bit disappointed with what happened, I cannot say enough about the way the BHR team sprung into action to diagnose the car and how well it was handled.

I put down the highest numbers even though CRH dyno'd 211, it's not a fair comparison due to the porting of his engine. he gets his own special category.
I think a few others were in the 190 range giving Ray and I a run for our money!
After dyno'ing, we went down to a restaurant / bar to just unwind a bit. THAT'S HOW WE ROLL!!!!

I'll post up my still photos and see about getting my video uploaded. I'll take care of it tomorrow as after a long dive and getting pulled over not once but TWICE and getting ticketed by DPS I am ready for bed.

I had Jeff start the dyno at 2,000 RPMs so I could see the daily-driving implications of the torque curve. Once Jedi posts the sheet I will explain what we are looking at in greater detail.
BTW, I will start to test the factory airbox for restrictions soon.
