I don't know if this has come up before but I was questioning the performance gains of my injen CAI so I ventured on to there website where I found this:

Tell me what you guys think!

 

tell U one think
BS

 

The baseline #'s seem low.

3rd party dynos > than site dynos.

We all remember the JET Excel dyno

 

With all the talk about CAI. Does anyone have any hard proof (dyno results) on which gives you the best gains (and doesn't sound like crap).

 

stock intake FTW........there was a whole thread on it with dynos...i am jsut too lazy to search for you right now

 

prepare for flaming

 

LOL . 12 HP on a max with 19's and exhaust system? LOL !!!!!!!!!

i never felt any performance gains when i installed my intake nor y pipe. but when i installed my sp2 last week, the car DOES pull better now !

 

but it you install cattman headers you will fell even a harder pull

 

My CAI sounds like it is pulling harder. Isn't that what a CAI is all about?

 

YES! It's all about sound and barely any power gains.

 

Please, please no flame. I am trying to get to the required number of posts so I can search the site. I am a good poster. GOOOOOD I TELL YEAH! ! !

 

You can have 50,000 posts and still not be able to search. Or you can have 1 and still be able to search.

 

haha, im broke as f. u like ur cattman ?

 

Fire up the barbie...

 

Dyno results differ. Just because that is the graph they used to prove gains, it doesn't mean you WILL get that same gains as well. 3-5hp gain is not even worth dynoing IMO, you can't even feel it. Many will swear they felt a difference but that's just a placebo effect. Why spend a few hundreds on miniscule performance gains? I'll get one of these someday when I want my engine bay to look cool. BTW, that dynograph is .

 

Watch out for bumps, you might end up high-centering yourself again.

 

I think if anything I lost low end torque, and maybe very small increase in the higher Rpm's.
