Jared, you should SEARCH about this and sift through all the junk you find. Performance gains are almost imaginary. Sounds more aggressive. Trade-off is it sucks in warm engine air. No free lunch unfortunately.

Almost every Dyno I have seen = Hood up and a BIG *** fan blowing right in front of the car. Of course you see 3-5 hp gains. Do you drive without a hood? I think I feel a little more pull from 4-5.5k but that is it.

A good idea (and easier, heh heh ), but unfortunately it still does jack if the car's at a standstill.

I've noticed the infamous low RPM "popcharger lag" once in a while but aren't really complaining (of course I've got a stick though).
