So is the point of the midpipe to make the car sound better? Because obviously 1 to 2 hp is not worth the mod..
I'm pretty sure that intake/headers/exhaust is generally never a cost effective way to add power to the car. I'm sure there's some exceptions out there, but doing any of those mods is a waste of money if you're looking at gains. It's pretty much for the sound.

Being bolt on's, if we could tune the darn thing then . oh well

tuning wouldn't help much... as folks who've used AFCs found out there's maybe 8-10 hp total available that way...the stock programming and engineering on this motor is pretty good.
(Note: it's not super useful to use an AFC in normal driving as the ECU tunes its changes back out in closed loop mode... but it'll "work" for 50-100 miles or so before that so could help a touch for a track day)

wow 50-100 miles thats it?! not worth the effort then, cause if you took it to a track you'd rack up miles in no time lol
