I'm not disclaiming anything. I believe I stated pretty clearly I was not calling into question your honesty on the matter. How is that even perceived by you ? All I asked for was any results from testing that was done on the car to see the differences provided by that. You stated you did have them.

Equal conditions would imply the only difference between our cars is your added performance mods, which I assume is your intakes vs my stock parts. So which one of us is going to go out and buy the same tires and wheels as the other to run at the track ? After all for any testing to be fairly legit the only difference in the cars should be the mods, all other factors would need to be the same if we're attempting to demonstrate strictly what the mods have done. For that matter running the car at a track isn't actually necessary, as a dyno is quite capable of showing any HP/TQ increases mods do for a vehicle vs running at a track which can be affected by other various factors outside of the mods. Probably part of the reason why the people that build and sell modifications use dynos to show the difference vs showing their drag times.

I love forum personalities that make sweeping judgments about other individuals without actually knowing shit.
