Thanks for looking.

I sincerely thought about creating a pdf with some numbers on it to counter that super official test, but you aren't worth the time

it's a good looking product, though.

Horspeower only arrives with a corresponding decrease in restriction and an increase in air flow. That's the basis for restriction testing.

It also sounds very nice. I'll try to get audio.

I'll go ahead and beat everyone to the punch.

DYNO Proof of more power? you can't just say that....without proof that more is needed. so without Dyno charts...your....pissing in the wind.

I personally don't care, as I like the stock airbox look...not a fan of the "Hey look I slapped a cone filter on my MAF" look. I'm strange. but many here will buy it, esp if you can prove (via dyno) that its as good/better than the popcharger, and other random intake noisemakers.

am curious what's on the PDF, can't open them on work machine...

oh, and it does look nice...better than the others I've seen.

not true at all - and if you know anything about intakes, you know there are several ways to manipulate power gains - increased flow is only 1 such way

your provided "proof" is certainly interesting - take that any way you wish

but not if you are trying to put a spin on it to make your intake the next great thing....

edit - sorry, when I copy/paste it comes out all jumbled. View it when you get home and let us know what you think

of course...and coming from someone who sells intakes, I will be the first to stand up and say that on this particular application, it is the absolutely, without question, LEAST important mod you can do. Taking it from the filtration standpoint is an interesting marketing excercise, but I'd bet dollars to donuts that if you gave each manufacturer a chance to produce their own results, you would get equally skewed #'s

here is what is posted on K&N's site

if gains are what you are after, you're going to have look elsewhere besides the intake and be prepared to break the wallet out

ok, looked at it. and based on my testing, those numbers are 97.793% worthless.

sorry but I don't see enough info there to say your intake is superior to any others.
As Z1, and others here have stated, not much HP gain is to be had via intake, unless you slap a blower in between the filter and the intake. so Mr Dynamicperformance: Dyno graphs are the best piece of evidence to support your product.
