One of my friends who knows about my obsession with my Camaro showed me this.. 24hp and 17tq to the wheels. Smells WAY TOO fishy..
You have to look at the BIG PICTURE... the car was most likely loosing power due to the AirAid... it was also running on crappy gas... So the baseline was most likely noticeably LESS than a car with a stock intake and good gas... So put some good gas in the car and then add a tune to recalibrate the MAF so it is reading correctly and you see a nice gain... So it not just a simple matter of a tune adding 24 HP, it's a combination of things... better gas, corrected MAF, some tune improvement... it all adds up... The problem is we don't know how much each piece contributed to the total gain...
