but going from alot of the reviews on powertec recently, they are more powerful than most of the leading brands...dont think they have been compared though to the viper

) Powertec can support upto 1000bhp..not quite enuff

Blundey is that a ecotek valve i can see? thats why you wont have flatspots like other people with non enclosed induction kits.

the ectech valve wont stop flat spots matey, flat spots arrive due to the induction kit sucking in hot air

This makes acceleration smoother and more rapid and has cured flat spots in the rev ranges of numerous sports cars.
