Gains from lower IC pipe on a near-stock evo

My current mods are just an MBC and a dynoflash (street flash). Everything else is pretty much stock. My best pass was a 12.78@107.6 in 40-50 degree air.

Will I gain anything from a lower IC pipe (e.g., Burshur), added to those mods above? I heard they're worth 7-10 hp, but its not clear if that assumes other mods.

I'm trying to keep my exhaust stock, so I'm looking for other options. Thanks.

I reported better trap speeds and better spool up and steady boost with the intercooler pipes, unfortunately I never dyno the results independently..

Same here, you will feel a difference and have better throttle response.

If you gained MPH because of the lower IC pipe, it means you gained HP from it. But was that with your current mods, or was it when you were near stock.

Mimamal , IF you did get 7 WHP that would bring your best pass to something like 12.71@108.2 under the same weather

I would look for a turbo back or a cat back 1st .
