People realize.. If you are just re-installing your oem cap its only 15 ft lbs.. I have snapped off 3 oem oil caps trying to torque to 20 ft lbs.. 20ft lbs is only for the high performance oil caps! haha

I heard if you get flame decals on your car along with the high performance oil cap you get a good 30whp. Remember to disconnect the negative terminal on your battery when putting the flames on.
