I've got a lot of work the next 48hrs and then I will see about getting a stock car on the dyno and see if I can do the blocks the following day.

Just to add to @nelsmar's point, my car was left an extra day to test these out. The company received the product on Saturday, and it should be tested/dyno'd tomorrow as I have to pick up my car.

Having said that, I will say what I can about the product but I may not be at liberty to release results, since it's for an automotive publication online. You can take a wild guess as to what site currently produces automotive parts testing.

Will update tomorrow.

MotoIQ is the first that came to mind, but I'm probably wrong.

FT86Speedfactory likes to do a lot of 3rd party testing, but I do not think they sell any crawford products soooo

Trying to book the maha dyno for Saturday for both baseline & tuned results. So I should have results by Saturday evening

I didn't want to do that late in the week but I would prefer to use that dyno as it is extremely consistent and my friends shop is pretty damn backed up right now.

Thanks a ton for sharing your results with us!

Looking forward to seeing what these offer.

Really want to see an a&b dyno on a mostly stock NA car with stock tune (stock tune After dyno too).

If these do make the numbers they promise, how would it affect engine life? I imagine it would shorten it, but by how much.

Putting more air into an engine should not shorten its life. it's not forcing it to run "hotter"

True, but NA mods tend to lower engine life. The more output without an increase in size will put more strain on parts.
