I took the time again to find an old post or two, which pretty much sold me on the plate:
Here they are:
Here are the before and after egt readings with the Precision plenum and a RJC plate. The egt probes are located in the header aprox. one inch from the mounting flange.
(without plate) (with plate)
(1 1702) (1 1660)
(3 1688) (3 1640)
(5 1759) (5 1647)
(2 1736) (2 1704)
(4 1744) (4 1707)
(6 1802) (6 1682)
These readings are taken at the end of the 1/4 mile pass on a motor with 9.5 CR, 24 degrees timing, 27 boost, 11.5 a/f.
The 1/4 times didn't pick up or fall off by adding the plate, as you can see it evens out the air lowering temps.
I was one of the critics when I first saw it until Brian Scott (turbobuick) gave me his to try out at Norwalk now I am sold on it.
I heard all of the 9 sec. and low 10 sec. tsm cars were using the plate at BG this year(not sure what yr because old post), all were taken home with head gaskets intact.

Then you have an old post from Nick Micale:
Here is info based upon real world experience.
Install a power plate on a NHRA stock motor on a dyno, NO other change, 25 ft-lbs increase in the torque band.
And Jason isn't afraid to post the dyno of a plate addition:

Along with Jason's testing on someones car: http://www.rjcracing.com/RJC_Buick_Products/RJC_A_D__Power_Plate/Tracktest/tracktest.html
