Question Could This Really Add 50 HP?!

Here is a link to an auction I found on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...401836043&rd=1

What exactly is this? Is this worth $100 bucks and can it do what it says it can do?

A properly designed and tuned exhaust system can. Just the addition of a Pre-silencer and pipe will not free-up that amount of HP.

No, it won't. there would be a noticeable increase, but not an extreme increase. somebody got ripped off today.

get a presilenced race pipe from rx7.com

Bonez pipe

will the ports still open right with the bonez straight pipe? The auction said his pipe still hooks up to the air pump.

THE PORTS WILL OPEN RIGHT WITH THE BONEZ BUT FOR A BETTER EXPLANATION JUST CALL ROTARY PERFORMANCE IN TX.

Nice to see someone else that uses Rotary Performance. I use to live in Dallas, they are a good group over there. If you call ask for Chris, he is the Head guy there. If SKY answers the phone tell her Kimo say HI

Hell yea, I love some Rotary Performance! As for the pipe, it's just like every other add you see..."Product X adds UP TO 50 hp...". Read the fine print...
