I'm curious as to what the "weather correction factor" is.

50+ ft/lbs of torque is nice... 10 hp isn't all that impressive. I was very pleased with the increase in performance from the regearing. I will be looking at the pricing on this type of set up...

I think it's a ridiculous claim on the Torque side of the fence. 10-12 ft lbs of Torque would be a stretch, but a gain of 53 ft lbs is absolutely ridiculous.

The throttle body spacer buys you nothing in terms of performance outside of a very minor increase in throttle response at very low rpms, in fact so low that before you hit 10 mph the added throttle response would be all eaten up.

As for the exhaust and intake, they do add some level of performance and I think that the hp numbers presented are probably pretty close or at least pass the laugh test unlike the Torque figures. The downside is there are a ton of less expensive ways to get better intake and exhaust performance. A drop in performance filter and an exhaust relocation kit and a performance can will get nearly all the way there.
