Hey guys this is my first post, just saw this on K&nfilter.com just wanted to make sure everyone saw this. The SRI gets 16 horsepower heres the link......http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...rod=69-4517TTK

 

Does,nt look any different from the others,I can,t beleive K&N are claiming 16hp.

 

@16hp

 

Buy it and dyno it, i dont want to see the "company dyno"


DYNO OR BAN!!

 

http://www.kandn.com/dynocharts/69-4517.pdf

there is dyno

 

lol u said dyno...i gave you dyno...be more specific please

 

i was specific, look at my post

 

Looks like the tube is plastic. We will check this out and get them on order.

 

could 16 hp really be possible from an intake on our cars?.....i mean thats an awful lot of hp from an intake...let alone a short ram....how much are these?

 

doubt it... anything close to 10 without active hood cooling is pushing it for a SR for us

 

true but k an n is a good name ....and i highly doubt theyd **** with anything to make it read what they wanted....

 

Maybe its 16 crank hp?

 

a 2.4 wouldn't dyno 150 crank HP... i dunno something seems weird

 

how much is it???

 

MY 2.4 dynoed 150whp stock.

 

isnt it supposed to be 173 or something


and how much does this filter cost?

 

173 HP at THE CRANK. Most SS/NA guys stock dyno between 145-160 HP to the wheels.

The intakes really do unleash alot of pent up frustration in our engines. It generally varies between 8-15hp gain from either a SRI or CAI.
I can see K&N doing a dyno on this thing with the hood open, effectively getting all the benefits of both setups. I guarantee you wont see this performance increase on the street.
It looks like a decent setup though, if it's under $200 it's will probably be the best deal on the market

 

Mine dynoed 146 HP stick on a mustang Dyno, I dont beleive there dyno sheet.

 

oh i see, what do the supercharged cobalts run at the crank?

 

Mandrel bent aluminum. At least according to them.

Stock? it varies between 205 on the nose as GM advertises, but I've seen member's claiming close to 240 crank HP from dynos. It's an underrated engine.
Our 2.4l engines are pretty much what GM claims them to be, but with room for improvement.

 

ss/sc's dyno at 205-225WHP the ss/na as stated will dyno between 140-160WHP

 

Hey guys just received this from K&N:

Dear Brian,



Thank you for your interest in K&N products. All of our Dyno testing is run with the hood closed. When doing a comparisons Dyno test make sure the environment conditions (outside air temp, gear ran in, Mercury inches, engine and transmission setup, Dyno and vehicle are at full operating temperature, the correct fan air flow, ect) are the same as the Dyno test you are comparing to. Also note that every test will run a little different for each run and each vehicle. When you are done I would like to see your test results and see how they compared.



If you have any additional questions, please me at 1-(800)-858-3333.



Thank you for choosing K&N,

what's the price though haha

 

Dear lord for those wondering how much K&N is selling it for... to buy it directly from them it cost $321.04 (ouch) and that doesn't include shipping.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

unless thats a definite proven 16WHP then it's by no means worth it...
