What PSI were you running? And any plans to run a test with higher PSI?
Graph shows 16 psi. Solid gains over a broad rpm range!

Injected Performance: Cosworth dyno test at 7000+rpm FI-homer-d-oh-.jpg I only took a quick glance and I totally missed that! I thought that was the torque curve at first.

Id like to see this tested on a car without so much headwork, maybe just a set of cams. Im sure more tests will follow, I cannot judge this plenum based off of this review...

IC, very nyce indeed but with a 3.5L and no headwork the gains would be quite less right???? How much do you think would be the projected difference?

I hear 'ya, I'm sure when the plenums are shipped to customers, they will be a lot of independent dyno testing on G's/Z's with full bolt-ons, but not built engines/F/I (hopefully).

Heck, I'll do one when I receive it.

What's the difference? It's not like they tested on stock heads / stock intake manifold.. They tested aftermarket heads w/ a stock manifold vs aftermarket heads w/ a cosworth plenum. The only variable in their testing was the plenum .

So what if hypothetically my grandmother had *****? Would she be my Grandfather??
Seriously, there are way to many, "what if this" "what if that" comments.Look at the before and after tests. THE ONLY THING CHANGED ON THE SET UP WAS THE PLENUM. The plenum was the only reason for the HP increase in their testing. I tmakes power over a stock plenum, period. To speculate how much on particular applications is silly..
Nice gains..

Thanks for the research IP. That is an impressive gain.

The only thing I would like to have seen was a 3 way comparison - Stock vs. Spacer vs. Cosworth. There is no question that the Cosworth makes power over stock, but now we're left to wonder how much more power it makes over a modded stock plenum. Simply so we can figure the cost / benefit ratio.

^ The APS tallboy gains are very similar...but I like the looks of this one much more. Plus you can retain a beefier strut bar.

I have never seen these kind of gains from a spacer

Thats what I am talking about.... I am just glad I ordered this thing before the stampede starts.

All I can say is thanks guys for shedding light on this thing.
