I know that 25 hp seems hard to believe but it is true. My Cougar was the car that MSDS used for the dyno runs. We made those runs at the SHO-Shop and R&D dyno. With the MSDS Headers,Intake and Bassani cat back my car dyno's at 178.
It's been a long time and I can post those plots if you would like to see them. Vadim could not believe it either the look on his face was priceless! I now have MSDS headers on my Escape and we made some pulls at R&D as well.
Stock Escape was 145 hp with MSDS headers,intake and cat back we pulled 185. I can post these plots for you as well if you would like. I can't remember the torque numbers as I don't have the plots right in front of me but once I get back home I can get those to you.
