I'm well aware of his test. My point was, if your engine flows X cfm and you have a panel filter that flows 10X cfm, then a cone that flowed 6X cfm, which one is going to produce better HP results? Both are flowing WELL over what the engine could use. Basically, at what point does the filter stop being the restriction? Somewhere along the line you have to start looking at design and not just at filter flow numbers.
