Hmm, thats not bad. I figured with all that shiney stuff you'd have to clean it more often.

I don't think so either.
And that's why when I hear ppl say how hard it is to keeppolished aluminum up, I wonder if they've ever had any?

Yeah i know what u mean, but if you dont polish it for a while doesnt it get dull? I've heard keeping polished aluminum wheels shiney can be a chore.

Itcan and will go dull if you don't polish it and it can go dull from trying to over polishing it also:believe it or not.

Only if you are looking at the bottom of the chart at 6600 RPM. The engine in that testseems to make it's peak HP at 5400-5600 RPM. The Cobra one makes the best power on that runwith 326.7 HP @ 5600 RPM. The peak power as well as the power throughout the RPMS are all within 5 HPthough so there is pretty much no difference between the 3 intakes.
