yeah but for what cars cuz if you go to the web site they only dyno certain cars basically the "preformance" cars they have the specs on but not every application they sell they have the #'s to back up their claims. the V2 maybe an increase on some applications but i think its marginal in other cars

neither is an h22 to some1 with 20" rims its all about what the person wants. if we talking about some real power gainers so be it. howeva the V2 is what is it theres probably better or worse out there its all about what the driver wants and can afford.
