At that point, yes a good air filter would be great, if not... its only for that sweet sound you get when you "pop the p-flow" ^^

Actually, air filters never realy give hp gains... it is more like a supportive mod. I.e an air intake that would allow more air in the engine, combined with a less restrictive exhaust (without loosing too much velocity) would allow the engine to breath better and take more fuel!

Hey guys why don't you just do a really black and white test
Hook a vacuum gauge to the manifold and do a back to back test.
Will this riced out cone filter do anything for my stock maxima?
Just link them to that thread and say NO/YES.
I did that with my bmw. Stock filter vs cone vs nothing at all. Nothing changed.
The throttle body was slightly. sliiiiggghhtly restrictive nothing anyone could perceive like 0.2kpa.
Do it. See if your riced out swiss cheese airbox or spectre riceboy filter unleashes the beast.
