I think thats because it was running 8x **** gas and the ecu went into limp mode. They refilled it with 93 octane and reset the ecu by disconnecting the battery, and voila. HP increase on the dyno.

This is true the more you disconnect the more hp you will release. You really dont need many engine bay parts as well, most are actually there to pass smog. take off a few engine bay parts and you will release that hp it dosen't matter which parts. Let me know how it goes.

I'll tell ya, bang for buck wise, you can't beat the spark plug delete. It really helped my engine breath better.

hey man welcome to evoM. disconnecting your battery will not create any horsepower, not sure where you read it but dont trust there information anymore.

DAMMIT. I thought I corrected that months ago.

thanks for the headsup on that, although it's kinda repetitive on here, as everyone knows an 03 is an VIII

heh... no prob... at first I though you converted an VIII to a VII.

but to the OP, disconnecting battery would do more harm then good. At least for the first few minutes until the ECM relearns parameters.

I'd think reconnecting it backwards would have more effect!
Seriously, this thread has gone on for too long...
