View Full Version : K&n Ftw
Dunkinuts 04-26-2009, 06:07 PM Well here is my video of my dyno today on a hot 91 degree day. All I have is the K&N intake on my2.4L 08 sport. Enjoy the video I will have my sheet up in a few hours I need to head home to my scanner.
This was on the same dyno as my stock pulls
Both times 4th gear was used.
Only change was the K&N SRI
no tune
fresh Royal Purple 5w-30 was in the engine
just cleaned filter.
stock dyno (70 degrees 31% humidity)
K&N dyno (90 degress 17% humidity)

Three Pulls on K&N

cobalt123 04-26-2009, 06:10 PM very nice, i love my k&n, need to clean the filter tho
wollis1 04-26-2009, 06:17 PM very nice man. all i have is the sri and the gmpp exhaust. is that with a tune or no
Dunkinuts 04-26-2009, 06:22 PM nope just the K&N I made 159whp last year and I made 171whp this year. The only "power" mods are the K&N and Royal Purple 5w-30
RooTBeeR 04-26-2009, 06:31 PM not to burst your bubble, but that last dyno sounds about right...although, they were probably 3rd gear dynos...so that would make it read a little bit higher power than it actually is
either way, nice car man :thumb:
wollis1 04-26-2009, 06:39 PM still a 12 whp gain over stock, WITHOUT a tune! im wondering what kinda numbers ill be putting down now since i got a catback and my sri is also fed by a hoodscoop, even tho that would only help when at speed

nice dood, i didnt know that those hoods were actually functional
wollis1 04-26-2009, 07:19 PM yea the hood i got is functional. i havent dyno'd my car or anything yet, but another member on here said they gained something like 6hp at speed with the suncoast hood that i have.
jsscooby 04-26-2009, 07:20 PM wow nice
Cobalt_1988 04-26-2009, 07:24 PM so my guess was right on track now im really going to get one of these how much of a sound difference over stock

nope 4th gear pulls

best 250 bucks I have spent.
Shibito 04-27-2009, 04:21 PM very nice. Do you have the full CAI on or just the short ram? I think the short ram gives better air flow from the front of your hood because of our stupid mud guard underneath the car.

just the short ram

Shibito 04-27-2009, 04:40 PM Very nice. Hopefully I'm running around at least 170whp then with an Injen intake w/ K&N filter + Megan exhaust.

I've always wondered if you could run piping from the foglight hole to where the filter sits for the CAI setup...

I'm sure you can but It would look dumb only having 1 fog light... Gains are also probably not worth the money.
Dunkinuts 04-27-2009, 10:43 PM you would get some top end but nothing major unless the tubing smooth and large.
Zdeuce4 04-27-2009, 10:49 PM i have that intake...i was thinkin about dynoing next week but i got full bolt ons and tuning..i swear if i dont get more than that somethins up

:lol: well then we know where the problem is then if you make less. I made my pulls on a 90 degree day so you can't use weather as an excuse. But I really don't think tuning has helped to many NA guys on here. I know the power band it self has probably gotten fatter but the overall power hasn't gone up much.

my stock dyno was in like 95* weather. i live in deep texas w/rediculous humidity.
TurboTechRacing 04-28-2009, 06:38 PM Looks good!

yeah that is the only saving grace to the temp the humidity was basically nothing.
Looks good!
thanks, I am just happy to see such a large improvement. Now people have a true guide to that the K&N intake gives them on the 2.4L
