Oh, so the SE is huffing and puffing out 105kw already on the mod.
Wow.

I did it and went from this before mod

to this after mod

Is there any particular reason why the pre run was done in 4th and the post run was done in 5th?

If your trying to get accurate power gain/loss figures, you would assume that the power runs would be done back to back and in the same gear.

I know they were in different gears and not back to back as I didn't have the chance but it is an indication of a noticable increase. Even without the dyno confirming more power it can easily be felt.

I dont doubt there is gain. Although, a 1 psi increase that gives 26rwkw irrelevant of inconsistent dyno factors is a little difficult to swallow.

When I did this mod to my SP, the difference could be felt through the seat of the pants.
It just revved harder and the boost gauge went up by around 2 lbs, so it really does work.

On a club dyno day, my SP put out 152.2RWKw and standard SP's were putting out around 133-145 RWKw, so it must make a measurable difference.

Go ahead and splurge out for the $2.50.
If you're not happy with it, it's easy to reverse.

The only downside I noted was that the engine did jerk around when backing off the throttle while under boost, but SP's do that anyway and you learn to drive around it.
