Everyone needs to stop and take a breath..... just think about how much an intake really adds to the car... 10 hp & pounds of tourque, the 3 stage is just so the power band is across all RPM ranges, it moves when it gets to a certain point so that range gets the correct air flow distance, VW/audi has done this for years as a 2 stage since most people do not rev the engine to its limits, thus the reason power dropped off at the higher RPMS.
So the rest of the HP is from what you ask 3-5 Hp from the larger exhaust. The rest is in the software, So will Dinan or someone do some reprogramming you bet. There is no other explanation, the engine block, pistons, cams and the like are the same.
Dinan would come with a warranty so there is no worry with that! By the time that kit comes out, the engines may already have changed to direct injection, which will boost the HP and efficiency even more!
