All I see is, "I got it and love it, it sounds mean."
How about a base dyno and then with the intake? Several people have it, but no one has dyno'd it.......lame.
And whats a dyno going to prove?
How many fan's a dyno operator can point at the intake?
I especially don't put value on intake dyno numbers. There are a couple of factors not accounted for on a dyno - making any type of results moot.
1) "Accurate" Load - Does anyone daily drive on a dyno?
2) Air pressure - at speed, pressure builds at the front of the vehicle producing a ram air effect into the snorkel.
3) Air turbulence - MAF/MAS sensors like smooth flowing air. The factory airbox has provisions that help smooth the airflow. The K&N does not. If the MAF sees turbulence at idle due to a fan, it could throw the fuel trims off during closed loop affecting your open-loop fuel mixture and power output.
A true measure of power is the trap speed. Dynos are for inflating egos.
First I don't know why this old thread is brought back up. Everyone seemed to keep asking for Dyno numbers and I already Dyno'd the K&N few months back.
Also here in this Import Tuner ISF mod gains artical they Dyno'd 12.9 whp gains with the K&N intake where I dyno'd 12whp gains on mine. Very similair results.
