22hp? I don't know, that sounds too high to be true but if it is true I'm getting it. Someone has to be the guinea pig and dyno it themselves.

No. The intakes are different on both cars.

Results are on a dynapack. Not saying they are false, just that they are different than dynojet or mustang dynos.

There must have been a really dirty filter on the car for a baseline run if the intake added 22HP.

I've never seen an intake get over 10-15 hp out of it. so don't see how some of these companies are getting their numbers.

Companies like to lie about products.
Gruppe intakes cost between $2,000-$4,000 and they only get about ~13HP-15HP. So why would one that's in the $200 range get 22HP?

Because they sell them to mainly the exotic car group. If you just paid $140,000 for your Ferrari, $3,000 is play money.

If you had a brain you should of been able to pick up on this. But since you don't, Companies lie about performance gains in order to sell products. Just check ebay listings for "electric superchargers"

This is an example of how different IATs can have a major impact on the performance of the LSJ. First run is a little on the low side for a dyno, but the second is on par with what we have all seen from a totally stock LSJ. If it was 215-220 then it would be something, but this is nothring more than not paying enough attention to IAT's between each run. If both runs were within the 5% I'm always yapping about then you would see no measureable difference between the two runs.

If we start seeing OBD 2 scans with dynos then we can start talking about real performance gains.

Note to everyone:

The dyno test for this intake I believe is done with their torque brace installed as well. So im sure it helps the numbers a bit.
However, From what I've read foam filters are the best there are so Im definetly getting this when its complete.
