Any real world HP numbers for the HO engine?

^All of those runs were in ethanol mode, they didn't realize until 3/4 the way through testing that when you have the hood off it automatically goes into ethanol mode, with the gauge cluster plugged back in it made 156hp stock. 160+ with different pipes.

Amsnow dyno tested 160hp. Jan issue of the magazine.
156 /160 H.P.
The truth is they set the Dash gauge for NON-ETHANOL (3-4% leaner) mode, then disconnected wire plug when removing the hood thinking the computer would HOLD the non-ethanol setting,
later they found out it didn't hold, and the E.C.U. reverted back to the safer/richer ethanol setting.
To clarify the 160 H.P./156 H.P. now on the same sled
160 H.P. Dyno run, fuel tested there had 0% ethanol in it
156 H.P. Dyno Run , fuel tested to be 5% Ethanol
No conspiracies, no modified E.C.U's...............
Any if you're thinking of buying a pipe or silencer, a $25.00 annual subscription to Dynotech research provides a wealth of information
