NO NO NO. I did not say the Hotshot was compared to the PR. There wasn't
even a GA16DE there that day. You said in your testing that the Hotshot one
was being redesigned with 2.5" piping instead of 3" piping, which yielded
better results. The PR one uses 3" piping for the GA16DE too right? I
didn't say there was a difference between the two on the SR20DE other than
that the price difference and the way it looks.
Wait a minute Mike. You said yourself that the new Hotshot design was
better than the old design. Right? You use different piping for the new
design right? In the old design, Hotshot was basically using a SR20DE CAI
adapted for a GA16DE right? So was PR. That's why I assumed that since the
new design yielded better results, the old Hotshot and the PR would have
similar gains.
