Is this guy full of it?

I know its just youtube and I have no proof but hes telling me he is putting down 320whp with his g35 and the following mods.

Megan racing resonated test pipes

HKS HighPower

Skunk2 5/8 in upper plenum spacer

Injen Cold Air Intake

Polk Racing Ported intake manifold

AEM EMS (tuned by polk)

Personally I know there are lots of people on here and even on the 350z forums not being able to break 300whp with FULL bolt ons. I know very few actually have but 320? He is saying he will show me his dyno sheet but that still does not prove anything. I said maybe 320 with some spray but not with just bolt ons and those even. Here is the link:
.

Just want to make sure I am not losing it and this can possibly happen with that little bit of stuff because everyone says our cars stock make around 230-240ish at the wheels(03 and 04 atleast). A gain in 80 horses on some bolt on I think is just plain bs.

Which Dyno? That may explain some of that... Not all dyno's are alike -- some read higher than others, and some can be tweaked to show more HP than what is actually being made by changing parameters - also what year is it? is it a Rev up?

I'm with you - seems a bit high

He has not stated what kind of dyno. Forgot about the different kinds. I believe its an 03 or 04 because when i commented on it he did not correct me. Glad im not the only one thinking its a steep number.

Theres no way thats accurate. His car would be the fastest all motor G that I'd ever heard of if it was pushin 320hp to the ground. I definately dont think the few mods he has would push his car up 80 horses

He might be telling the truth, but with the dyno he's using then most cars are going to make high numbers.

He is definitely wrong though, it's not making that much power.

S2ks are a menace, one of my favorite cars of all time.

When I can afford insurance on a coupe I will definitely be buying one.

Numbers are way high. He's not putting that down to the wheels with those mods.

I won't make a statement and tell you he's full of ****, let's just say what he quoted is "Wishful Thinking!" He may be adding up what the manufactures clam they're products offer in increases but we all know that isn't true. Tony at MotorDyne is the only one I'd believe about RWHP increases because his spacers and exhaust have proven their worth....!
