A lot of these quotes, whilst mostly tongue-in-cheek, combine the two factors. 


IIRC, a weight savings of 10-15 lbs is equivalent to a power boost of 1-2 horsepower.  Add to that a 5 hp gain at high RPM, fudge the math and you're close to 8-10 "bolt-on" hp.


Then there's the placebo effect -- it sounds faster, so it must be faster.
