fair nuff..
take the car to an independent dyno before the head work. then get the kw at the wheels increase IN WRITING from them before they do the work, and get them to GUARANTEE the increase they claim. then get the car dynoed after the head work at the same dyno with the same specs and variables and day temperature as before.
then go back and demand to have your money refunded 
seriously tho, they claim that atfer fully rebuilding a completely shagged motor (new rings and bearings), they got 21kw increase.. they don't say what the actual figure was beforehand, or after..
they seem to know what they are doing, but to expect 21kw atw with just porting, when the ports are already pretty good (we are talking a minimum of 20-25% increase in power here) is a fair whack.
maybe if they took out the spare tyre, and the seats and a bit more weight, it would help, but... then again, maybe i'm just cynical
so what hp would be required to got a stock AEwhatever it is (82/92?) into 14's??? is that hp realistic with their claims?
be objective and critical with "performance claims" otherwise we'd all have those "supermagnet fuel molecule straighteners"
