You guys must have some really high tech "ass" dynos. You'll never feel a 5 hp gain, I barely noticed the 75 hp gain with the 75 jets in my Camaro. Other than I picked up 7 mph in the quarter and put a bus length on a Ferrari 360, it was really hard to tell. You'd kinda feel the initial hit, but that was really it, now the 100 jets were a different story.

If you can't notice when the bottle comes on - you're beyond any help I can offer...

You could feel the hit but that was about it. Thats why I think it's funny when people doing a small mod and say they felt the difference, I think it's more in their head. They want to feel like that money they just spent did something so they think there is really a seat of the pants gain.

If you put enough small HP gains together you can feel it but I agree you can't feel 5 HP. Although an entire freeflowing catback exhaust can make you car feel a lot more responsive. Or if it's too freeflowing can make it feel way less responsive.

I know that I was not convinced about the goldline springs, but I got to drive Mike's HHR on our cruise night (thanks again Mike). My very large husband also got to ride shotgun with Mike and I was surprised that Mike's ride did not bottom out on a very dicey driveway.

I am now a believer in the goldlines. It is just a matter of time until I install them too.....
