Never heard of them before but according to the Dynos the header exhaust intake combo yield nearly 30 hp at the wheels. Read somewhere on this board that the throttle body only yields about 1 hp. So the header full exhaust and intake should net about 23 hp at the wheels not bad. Now i wonder if that header throws a CEL from the design im sure it does.

doesnt 23 whp seem like alot for just headers and exhaust?
it would be nice if it was right and did not throw a CEL

There are alot of vehicles out there that have those kind of gains with NA engines. The 2.4 L engine in our TC is pretty large so im sure 23hp with IHE is possible . Now i wonder if anyone here knows if the Alphawerks Header thorws a CEL.
