I'm actually going to be doing back to back logs of the AIRAID and AFE tomorrow. It's finally cool enough up here to get some good readings. |

Please send the air south, it's rather warm 88-90 this week.

At this point my "real" issue is with my preception with the Airaid product and the data I'm seeing. Of course, when you get something shiny and new it's easy to get wrapped up in everything feels great side of the fence. When you can correlate this perception with some substantiated data from the manufacturer is when you're on cloud 9.
At this point, I'm just plain confused. Realistically, I'm stuck with the the intake. I don't think I can return the product or sell it to someone else. I mean at this point who would take it off my hands right? So here are some questions that I'd really appreciate some answers to... 1. So the Airaid intake makes more power with the sound generator removed??? 2. And the snorkle behind the bumper removed too? I've done this already btw. 3. Should I reset my ECU? I never did this when I installed the intake. 4. Would Airaid or anyone else be willing to do some more testing? Only if to support/refute new data presented by independent parties?

No disrespect, but I think the best bet is to bring your own car to a dyno and have it tested vs. stock intake for some comparisons. There seems to be too much variability in these dynos, to do a vehicle to vehicle comparison. Best to compare against your own baseline so that all of your mods, ECU, atmospheric conditions, test conditions, and dyno are all equal. |

Every car is different. Every instance is different. Every scenario is different.
Dyno your own car to make your own conclusions. Don't let this post jade any opinions. Facts are facts, but for one tester being a sample is not a sample. Multiple testers with similar tests should yield the appropriate results. It's all about sampling. |

I replace the intake with the stock setup, wow, what a difference!
Drivability: Improved Throttle response: Much improved Power above 6200 rpm: Greatly improved Airaid is for sale

I can't decide if I should bother putting the stock air box back on because I no longer have the snorkel behind the bumper. Looks like it'll be a Perrin or AFE for me. Airaid is for sale

When I put my stock airbox back in, I cut my snorkel just past the first mount. Much easier to install/remove and you can still suck in cold air with the stock box. Just a suggestion if you decide to go that route. |

I'm really torn. I'm wondering if I should take the time to change back to the stock setup. Decisions decisions...
