Default Joe Z Intake and Exhaust Results - 383 rwhp SAE

I got a prototype Joe Z intake pipe last week and finally had a few minutes to slip away and go back to redyno my car. The last time I dyno'ed I did so at ARD (with just the Joe Z PTS exhaust) and so I wanted to go back for consistancy. The car made a whopping 383 rwhp SAE and 403 rwhp uncorrected!!!!! I am very happy with the intake and exhaust purchase, thanks Joe!

SAE Corrected 383 rwhp

Wow, those are really great numbers! With the Joe Z exhaust and intake combo over stock it looks like you gained 25rwhp (judging by the third graph)

The combo seems to really improve the high RPM power

Have you noticed anything about gas mileage since you installed the combo?

Those are good numbers, but isn't that what one should expect from an intake/exhaust combo and aren't those the numbers Joe Z was promising? Nicely done!

DRE - thanks! Sig changed!

BigMike - Actually, yes, my gas mileage has gone down noticeably, but that's b/c I keep flooring it to hear the exhaust! LOL

As for gain, yup, right at 25 rwhp with the exhaust/intake combo. Here is a graph stock vs these mods smoothing on 5



timetoy - up see above.

8speed - yup!

Very nice! Thanks for posting Peter. Just goes to show that Joe doesn't inflate his numbers as most other manufacturers do.

wow great numbers 25whp gained. I guess the IS-F needed to breathe a little better. I wonder how much more the car is restricted. Add a tune or even underdrive pulleys.. Good work Joe real numbers without the big tuners BS..LOL

With MHP's new v2 tune, you would probably hit 400rwhp.

What octane gas are you using?

Thanks for all the kudo's guys! In all reality, all the results were just as advertised by Joe. He was GREAT to deal with throughout my whole modding experience. And trust me...after having 13 Supra's (6 of which made over 800 rwhp), several BMW's, a 1,478 rwhp TT Viper, modded Z06, etc...I can tell you that I've dealt with my fair share of false promises on products... This experience has been exactly as promised and I am stoked about that.

Also, don't forget, the car made 402.5 rwhp ACTUAL today (the cf was a HP robbing 0.95), that is BADASS!

Ok good, I thought it was just me. I don't think it's because of the intake and exhaust rather I just can't keep the car accelerating any slower then WOT

I'd be surprised if houstonT ran anything other then 93. There are some pumps you can get 95 at down here


Joe Z is a great guy to do business with and a good guy to get know. He knows his stuff really well. I'm happy, like many others, to see that his results are consistent on various F's across the country
