Horsepower...a few horsepower. It is like 1-2 hp less than a normal CAI. If you install it right, then you shouldnt have problems with it cracking.

^^ keep in mind that this data is from a TUNED injen sri..you will NOT get these numbers by just bolting the Intake on like most tuners do.

rather, this shows its potential.

your not going to see HUGE gains with an Intake, thats why i went with the Injen SRI and its awesome (despite my cel p0171) CEL that comes on. Sounds pretty focken mean too. grin

please do not take this the wrong way because i am not flaming you at all, but:

1. people would KILL to get 7-8 whp from an Intake...thats almost too good to be true.

2. your only gonna get like 3-4 whp from a name-brand cai, and you will get even less with an injen shortram.

3. as i said, the dyno i posted was from a TUNED ecu...unless you plan on reprogramming, you will NOT see those numbers. they will be cut in half at the most, and even less than half on average
