scrming..I can't remember, but didn't your stock intake tube experiment (removing the silencer) show some potential or am I dreaming that? lol

I guess I'm just not 100% convinced that the full CAI's are worth it or not. (and maybe this isn't either lol, but its around 100 bucks cheaper) Some with the CAIs claim they feel a difference while others say it didn't do much more than improve the looks...

It did indeed, scrming's intake experiment. His 0-60 times dropped a little. Enough to make a difference.

Yeah, I think smoothing out the intake path is a good way to make an extra pony or two.
