That's the old sales and marketing 101 trick called bait and switch.
Look in their magazine to see how many times that company..JET..was advertising in it, in a previous issue or up coming issue.
There is no way unless cams were degreed or something else had been done to acheive those numbers. I'll bet they claimed a 2mpg increase too right??
Probably gauranteed you'd get more chicks if you got their parts and tune too....
I wonder where the power was added in the rpm range? Was it in the very high range or across the board? Either way that much increase in torque has got to be BS and the hp #s seem slightly inflated too. Maybe it was corected and recorected hp??

damn TGO... glad you got your point across. lol jk... i was like oh he double posted, oh no wait triple posted, oh... hold up, quadruple (sp?) posted... lol
yea its just marketing scam...ppl that have NO idea what they are doing with their vehicles will beleive this.. and better yet its so enticing because the tb spacer and the maf is a snap to install and the tune is self explanitory. No doubt this all will help a tad.. but not to the point where it'll be that much of an increase

Chevy High Performance published another article like this in their September 2005 issue. They claimed their 5.3 Silverado gained:
15.3 hp and 17.3 tq from Granatelli wires
26.8 hp and 38.9 tq from Granatelli wires and MAF
55.05 hp and 45.1 tq from Granatelli wires, MAF, and intake.
LOL, I wish wires gave you 15 hp.
15.3 hp and 17.3 tq from Granatelli wires
