It's real hard to gauge the HP gains from a cool air intake at the dyno since the only cool air it is getting if from a fan sitting in front of the car. You will notice a change in throttle response. That car has 340HP!!! Is that RWHP or crank HP? If it is at the wheels, what has been done to it?

You'll notice the difference in your butt. I've driven mine with and without it, and you can feel the difference.

how about 10 hp, but it's just a guess since there is no way to measure it, except maybe with a g tech
