If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. Check out the recent thread on the AFE intake - they claimed 21 hp but it was more like 5 actual.

Most of the intakes for the Z only seem to add about 5 hp, some have actually caused a loss in HP. The stock intake is already pretty efficient and the engine is tweaked to the max. You'll find it's hard to get a lot of easy bolt-on power.

My friend is putting on the new injen intake 2morrow he told me when he orderd it that it would add like13-15rwhp..not true,,,, I think he talked to someone from injen its more like 5-10 rwhp...I run the pop charger, I gaind at least 4-5 rwhp on the butt dyno..The main thing is the throttle response you feel with the pop charger....109shipped cant beat that!
