That narrow merge might be why there is more torque.

Thats what Im thinking. I would think the 5.0 likes the back pressure being created by the restrictive section. While hp will go up with the full exhaust the tq will most likely loose on the low end and be close to the same on the high end. I will post up the dyno sheet tomorrow when I get to the office.

Hey Mitch...I live just south of McKinney. I would love to meet up sometime and check out your car. A few other buddy's of mine meet up on Saturday at the Shops of Starwood in Frisco on Saturday mornings. I have the only ISF, but there are always guys there with M3's, M5's, M6's, S4's, Porsches and a Ford GT. We usually have a pretty good turn out.

Id love to come out, but this Saturday Im helping a friend rebuild a canopy in his back yard. I will definitely come out some time asap! Id like to get another F owner's opinion on how the car drives vs stock.

And, IMHO, the workmanship on the PPEs is superb

Not really what... I said you can call PPE and have a set made, they offered that to me because I spoke with them a bunch and seriously was considering testing them like you are before I bought Sikky headers. Is that not how you got a set? I agree the quality is tops but I think your gonna have check lights without an o2 simulator, Sikky did a years worth a testing to keep that CEL light off in a F before coming up with their fix. Maybe im wrong, im excited to see your numbers with PPE.

^^^^PPE has another set (the prototype) mounted on an F, I have seen it. There is no CEL.

To Mitch & BLKFIN: The F regulars in that area are myself and Mike (bigmike). We usually go to all the cars and coffee meets. I live right near the shops at Starwood. Due to work and wife's health I have been missing a lot of meets. But since December I no longer work for the company and my wife's health is better now. I would love to meet up over there. I ate at True Grill for the first time yesterday. Look forward to meeting you guys. Also please visit the North Texas Lexus group on club lexus as well.

Can't wait to check out your car. I would love a set of those headers but wanted to hear them first.....

I was thinking, a few weeks ago I saw a red ISF on the North Dallas Tollway between 635 and 191 heading North. It had the S4Play diffuser on it. I was in my silver ISF....was that you?

Mitch08ISF

Yup! you had a diffuser also right? my car was filthy that day lol After seeing how clean your car was I went straight to the car wash. I think I waved at you. We were close to the frankford exit I think.
