[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1063909605, member: 2429"] They're loaners. I'm returning them. F-O-C. Correct. If the Best ICable was worse than stock, it would've stuttered after 1st time installation. But since (my assumption) it's better than stock, current (at that time) ECU state still worked fine except it could have worked even better if it readapted. Having left my car to adapt for a month, going back to stock instantly there was a power loss. If the cables hadn't provided some performance gain my car wouldn't have lost that much power. And that's also why I'm keen to re-do the dyno. I'm expecting significant improvement in figures. And agreed again, + or - 5% is acceptable tolerances when doing a dyno so I won't judge 5% increase as a performance gain. Only if it's significantly more like perhaps 8 to 10 ps then I'll consider it a performance gain. Right now though, butt dyno tells me stock cable is crap even after adapting! Item #2, I'm not sure. I'd be interested to know who would have bought into his product too. If you're bold enough to give me a set for testing then I'd be more than willing to test it. But as I mentioned, it may or may not be beneficial for the sellers of this product. If it works wonders then great, if not I can be pretty negative. [/QUOTE]
