I will add snake oil and magnets to double the power gain!!!! [8|]
First, the pic of the thing installed in the engine bay is apparently not what they are selling. The mandrel bends they claim are in a plastic flex pipe that sell for appx $30.00 USD, and are not mandrel at all? Next, the filter they have is what???? Finally as I have said many times, that is not a cold air intake. Where does the cold air come from? The stock system grabs more cold air than that from the inner passenger fender.
Last, duno results are not really applicable to real world driving, but are useful in testing tuning, to make sure you are moving in the correct direction. So, the variables that we do not know about lead me to believe the dyno numbers are innacurate in that application. Example, was the hood left open when pulls were done, was the engine at operating temp, what was the air temp and humidity at the test time, what was the elevation, was the PCM stock, was the intake the only thing being tested for that improvement.....on and on?
In the mean while, I suggest a K&N or other brand peformance filter.
Be patient, there is a better top quality and real system on the way to be priced around $150.00. [;)] Stay tuned.
