still a good gain for just an intake and tune but not quite 28hp

I'd be curious one day to see someone dyno the intake alone, then the intake with the tune. then we could see what power is gained with the intake vs intake and tune. it wouldn't be that hard to do, just install the intake, dyno the car, then load the tune and dyno it again
Your right. I quoted the stock airbox with 91 octane tune numbers. Stock airbox with stock tune is 261 rwhp and 282 rwtq. That gives the numbers I quoted.

288.9 rwhp - 261 rwhp = 27.9 rwhp gain
303.5 rtrq - 282 rtrq = 21.5 rtrq gain

Anyone installed their own? I wouldnt mind getting a CAI tuner and cams and doing all the work myself but i cant really afford much at the moment. But that would be a nice gain especially for the price if i install everything

My under drive pulleys are on back order right now. They could have shipped by now, but the company that I ordered from does not provide tracking info on them. I need to have all parts in hand before I set up an install/dyno with Real Street Performance. I have however received my CMCV delete plates and my blue cam covers (which are gonna look awesome ). Most likely it'll be a few weeks before the shop will be able to see me.
