Yeah Air Raid is bad for your car, especially up top where it chokes up

Have you had yours dyno'd? If so, did it produce similar results to what is listed here?

Lol, you forgot the ebay tornado intake mod for 21 hp.

These numbers are pretty bogus. Perrin 11 hp? Injen 13 hp? riiiggghhttt....

I think a BIG disclaimer NEEDS to be added to the OP, saying some of those are Manufacturer number and several independent third party reviews have shown a lot of them to NOT be accurate.

Yeah, the Injen tests were with an open hood... lol. Try it with the hood closed in a more realistic environment.

Guys, seriously, relax.

Please re-read my post and I don't think I could have stated any clearer that I am just some guy on the internet, not a tuner, and just gathered what I could find.

Besides, I didn't see any of you offering other information while you were bashing what I found (which most of which is from THIS SITE!).

I knew this would result in some hurt feelings but honestly, some of you really disappoint me with your quick desire to shoot someone down without offering any useful insight.

So I tell you what. Why don't you re-read everything I said, go find something useful and we'll post it. I have no vested interest in this and couldn't care less about the order of these products. Just trying to be helpful which is more than I can say for some of you.

Scott

Blows my mind that a company would make an intake that loses 16 hp on a 200hp engine. U probably can't do worse if u tried to make 1 outta plastic elbows from home depot and a pep boys filter. I think it would be in air raids best interest to work on that or this will be a bit of negative pr.

Try a new post with third party dynos on all the intakes rather than including any manufacturer dyno. Everyone knows a short ram intake doesn't push 16 whp and when people read this, they're going to jump to an instant conclusion without reading the post like 90% of people do and say, OMG I'M BUYING AN INJEN BECAUSE THIS POST SAYS 13 WHP.

I'd be really surprised to see the Injen outdo the Perrin, Vigilant, and FA20 cold air intakes with that heat under the hood.
