Where did it say the 3.6 L only gain 15hp? On the website it clearly states 25hp gained and not 15. Could Someone from road sport supply verify this? If so then i'm in for one!
Is there a satisfaction gaurantee for this product?
Thanks

I would like to know why they made the changes, is it of new test results,
or is it so they can get more 3.6L orders? Coz' I know the original claimed 15hp gain was the big deciding factor for many 3.6L owners, including myself.

Yes i spoke with Greg from Road Sport SUpply Thursday afternoon and questioned him about the stated hp gains. From what he said it was due to further modifications of the plenum. HE said that they used an "equalization tube" (what it is i don't know). But to their surprise it netted an extra 12hp from the slight change.
So i went ahead an ordered a plenum for my 2002 996. There is a 100% satisfaction gaurantee with this product. So if you don't like the performance they will accept a return no questions asked. I do know that since this thread was started the plenums flew off the shelves. They are out of stock, but the production is under way and they should have more next tuesday.
I will also perform a before and after dyno of this product and let you guys know.

wow nice gains.. Has anyone ever done this on a 997S, I was really considering this mod but no one has posted any threads about any gains or anything... Would this be a pretty easy DIY. How about warranty issues.

Just had this installed on my 3.6L.. The engine revs easier to higher RPMs now. I've been driving the hell out of it to let the ecu adapt. So far, it feels good and it's a noticeable difference for me. I have the Schnell rubber replacement tube on the factory intake and OEM muffler PSE bypass mod.
