Please don't take offense, but I call BS on that.
Especially on a stock motor with only CAI and tune.

Keep in mind that they will say what you wanna hear to sell their products.

the key words are "up to 15 hp." what they are saying is they guarantee that if your car is a freak of nature, it will gain at most 15hp, but that is unlikely. if it said "at least 15 hp," then it would be a different story.

15 probably isnt out of the question for LTs and an x pipe really, shedding the cats and adding an x pipe can add half the gains and the headers wouldnt have to pick up that much more.....if it was 25 I would call BS though
