not a scam at all. Small motors means small gains. But... it all adds up. For example. If your serious about modifications... these are the first bottle necks in any motor. So fixing them up is usually the first thing to do.

Not a scam at all. Later on you'll realize how much it helped

A intake and a exhaust are a good start for hp than work your way up to more. Thats what I started with in my sxt got to have something before my srt turbo swaping which I will change the intake to a injen and leave the srt exhaust .

Wow 50% drivetrain loss! What, are you filling your ATX with WD-40 or what? He he he j/k. Anyway, the MOST extra HP you will ever see at the crank from an intake is about 5. The most you will see from exhaust is about 4... that's a total of9 at the crank between the two... expect7 1/2hp to make it to the wheels if you drive a stick, 6 1/2 or 7 if you have an automatic. Remember to reset your computer after you install mods too.
