That's great, but:
A) Provide us with a dyno sheet.
B) You need to check into becoming a vendor and paying for advertising on this site. Otherwise, Type X or some mod is going
to lock this thread.
C) There's plenty of sites that don't use www. doh!

They have the dyno sheet posted on their site/

As for B) I do agree.

How does your unit compare to the Hondata gasket? Is it just the red appeal? I can get both at the same price and I would love to hear your comments :).

Here's the Dyno...

There is a dyno to prove it .....it was my car, Ill back this up 100% If you buy one and dont make power Ill give your money back!! I made more power with the gasket than the $400 greddy exhaust.

i'll allow the discussion of this gasket to continue, but if you want to utilize EPhatch to sell them, please become a vendor first. otherwise posts will be edited and/or deleted.

FYI guys...


I'll be doing a full write up with Dyno results. I should have one of their gaskets for tomorrow's Dyno day in order to get before and after numbers.

Keep your eyes open for the write up next week. I'll link to it in this post. ;)

NP guys....Their Customer service kicks butt.

Pending the amount of interest, I believe they'll be contacting Type X to get a group buy started. :cool:

I was in Nashville last week for the meet, and I ran into Lee. We were up in Lebanon, he drove to the otherside of Nashville to get me a gasket and met me downtown. THAT is customer service. There is no dyno around here, and I am real busy with selling the house and getting the divorce. I hope to get it on in the next couple of weeks. it looks great. packaging is very professional, the dyno sheet was included. I am anxious to get this put on. thanks again Lee.;)

Ill let him jump in with the details, but it worked out pretty well to say the least. :D

Phil, if you can help me out with that it'd be great. I'm having a hard time with the software ( <-- retard :p).


But yeah, we were both impressed with the numbers as well as the guy who ran the Dyno.

Sure thing Mel, here ya go...

Remember its not necessarily all about peak hp, the gasket definately showed some nice gains throughout the entire powerband..

what happened to the 8HP gain? Could other bolt on's greatly affect the real dyno numbers (eg: more flow from a better exhaust)?


peace

Here is the point where the gains are the highest, its not always peak power.

hrm, well, i'm gonna chime in and ask yet again, what're the material differences between this and the hondata IMG. i'm guessing they're not too much different, since the gains look pretty much about the same as a the hondata.
and nice numbers Mel, especially for havin the new motor and runnin on the SRI. :)

05-23-2004, 02:28 PM
Yeah, for real.... nice numbers....

what are your mods Mel?

First up, thanks a ton to Phil. I must've spent 1/2 an hour trying to play with that damn software. :mad:

A big thanks out to Mr Fuji! :cool:

Thanks Tim! I was very impressed even though I had swapped out the CAI for the SRI. I was hoping for 140's so I was more than happy :D . The motor only has ~1500 miles and performed like a champ!

As far as material, it seemed to be a harder plastic. I had the Hondata gasket (Honda decided to toss it when they replaced my block :mad: ) and the Nextgear def seemed stiffer. It's also red for those who like invisible bling ;).
