I always figure there is 5-810 HP margin of error in a dyno. If so, dyno testing intakes really does not make sense. Especially with things like the MAF sensor having to relearn, and some needing tunes to run right. When you look at an intake like the VR, it's not gonna make any more on the dyno than another intake..but there are plenty of customers who have their Corvette product that will back up their claims of 3 tenths in the quarter mile.

I always tell people intakes are like shoes. They all do about the same, so pick the one that fits your budget and style the best.
