geezbeez at no point have I tried to 'debunk you as an ill-informed idiot' I cannot understand why but I do apologise if it has come across that way... I have only asked you clear and simple questions to try and understand what you were actually asking. I find that your posts HAVE come across like you are slating balance motorsport. If you wanted to know about others experiences with the exhaust to determine your own perception on the validity of the dyno results, why not just ask exactly that instead of starting the whole topic off like the bhp measurement has been grossly over estimated and you doubt the claims made? I didn't suggest that you take the topic off the forum, its not my place to do that as I'm not a moderator and this is a public forum, but I DID suggest that you direct your doubts at the company who made the exhaust which is most likely to be the best way of helping you decide whether to buy or not. Also, picking up on a genuine typing mistake which although misleading was corrected, and suggesting that I was making the exhaust out to be something that it is not, is rather childish!

Im not trying to slate Balance motorsport. I expected to comments something along the lines of "I bought one of these and can I do believe the claims because I got it fitted and it really is better because....." and maybe "I fitted a different exhaust and its (also good/no good at all)" If you look on my107 blogspot on the dyno used "a standard 107 appeared to make 75.8BHP @ 5974rpm, improving to 79.4BHP @ 5946RPM, with a K&N and backbox change so almost the same figures with a different airfilter and back box. Are these dynos overreading or does the 1 litre unit generally make a bit more than the 68 claimed in basic tune? That might be something to discuss? When starting this thread: I didnt expect one person to take opposition to my posting along the lines of questioning why I should ask and why I should not take website dyno results as fact. Initialy making out that the exhaust was something it was not, and then back tracking, whilst constantly questioning me, possibly wishing to debunk me as an ill-informed idiot. Not discussing the product and finally sugesting I take my discussion off the forum. On a positive note: AVO coilover kit. I do quite a lot of research before I buy stuff and I think "Number1Norton" comments about the FK dampers were helpful and I can contact AVO about the coilover kit if I decide I might want to buy it. I asked skeptically why 0-30mm drop front and 25mm rear: What I believe the correct reason for having 5mm more drop front than rear is: The rears are non adjustable so set at 25mm. With alowance for 5mm more drop front then the front can initially be set at 25mm as the back, then you can then measure the weight on both front wheels and adjust acordingly for even corner weight. If the rears were set at 30mm and front 0-30mm when you adjusted for corner weight at the front you would always end up with the car slightly lower at the rear. I did not post sugesting this, I thought it was the right answer and I thought someone else might say something similar unprompted.
