Dan,
> -HP 30%more than stock, Stock is 85-90+ HP on the average.
> -Who manufactured the chip is it a direct replacement. A company Outside the states is making the chip and the chip is "Protected" against copying:(
> -What is the ratio on the rocker arms. 1.4 Gene Berg assemblies.
> -Any long term testing.  The company I get them from has had them on the road for about 2 1/2 years.
> -Is a header necessary to reduce backpressure. Stock exhaust is what is on all of the units running, BUT I'm going to see if the ProjectZwo exhaust can improve the HP too.
> -Any heat problems?  Has actually run a little cooler than before the upgrade
