so i got the kiddracing rmf narrow header. it looks fantastic and the quality is great but it lost power on the dyno. it actually made more power in midrange and picked up a lil torque but from 7-8500 it lost 10hp compared to my tri-y. here are some pics it will be comin off and tri-y goin back on soon.
