Original the horsepower 110.98PS torque 16.22kg-M
Modified the first paragraph, the horsepower for 120.22PS torque 17.26kg-M
2.3 liter engine with the original vehicle weight, horsepower upgrade the torque 9.24PS enhanced 1.04kg-M, can be said to improve the curvature much larger, can be said from the start, acceleration, speed, high-speed performance very different response, in general, beyond the the 8PS above can be rated as "excellent" performance

Thunder's SUS304 stainless steel manifolds are low-noise and sturdy. With 2mm-thick tubes, unique in-house design, and HKS Dynojet horsepower test certification, we guarantee the superior quality of our manifolds and their extended operation lives!
Stainless steel assembled manifolds: Durable and rustproof.
Stainless steel exhaust pipes: Easily welded, sturdy.
Thick stainless steel tubes: low-noise and with longer operation life.
Fuse welding is better than pulse welding:
Standard pulse welding simply welds manifold pipes together. But the weakness is that the pipes become thinner after welding, with structural changes and a shorter operation life. However, welding with the addition of fusible material the same as that of the pipes does not compromise pipe-wall thickness, but rather strengthens and extends durability.
