The small stock airbox is all it needs

Looks really dumb. Probably no actual hp increase.

If you want to promote your own products, probably best to be more discrete about it.

Your way of marketing only works if you are not affiliated with the product(s) in question on the surface. It's okay, we all start somewhere and make mistakes.

The only thing good about this would be look, because we all know CAIs on our cars don't do too much.....

then you don't know what you are talking about. While most do not do much, the grimmspeed one actually has dyno proven gains.

I think you got a little overly defensive/misunderstood my reply.

With the grimmspeed I still wouldn't believe there stock dyno numbers, however I do believe the OFT tuned numbers with them. If you're gonna pay $800+ for a CAI it definitely shouldn't be this for all that CF charm

This is the right answer. Intakes don’t add hp, they simply free up restriction when you add hp to other parts of the engine. A modern day engine is only requesting a certain amount of air, so changing how the engine gets that air will only affect throttle response.

Our stock airboxes are an improved design of the 2008 Subaru intake that can handle 350hp. Even a car with ACE headers isn’t sucking in enough air to need an aftermarket intake.

Not entirely true the Gruppe-M/Revolution intake adds a decent amount of power but it's very expensive.
