If you are looking for pure power #'s - nothing.

The Xcal 2 may help a few ponies, but the gears will actually show lower on a dyno.

performance, you will see a good gain as long as you have traction.

If you have the dial indicators and know how to do it, then do it at home, if not the price of install isnt that bad really.
