Yes, I can feel it, Sheesh....Now what does that prove to you that some shlub on the internet says he can feel it, are you going to run right out and buy it now based on that?

I don't know if anyone can physically feel a 25hp increase. Can't say I did. I was already thrown into the back of my seat, wheels spinning and a smile on my face. Now after a 100HP increase I'll get back to ya.

ONLY a 25hp increase? That is a lot from one simple and inexpensive mod. Keep in mind that 25-30hp extra horse is at the wheels too. On an NA engine, an intake may get you ONLY 10-15hp. The Roto-Fab is worth every penny!

Thanks, I have heard good things about the Roto-fab but was just curious if you could feel the HP increase. I appreciate your feedback.

I think You can feel it and here it Way better than stock. I have never been able to hook up yet. Maybe when it gets warmer. I have not been able to use nolift up shift yet either it just blows away the tires and the nannies kick in.

Great Vid - Very Cool, thanks for sharing! I also have the Rotofab CAI as the only mod currently. I love that sound! I heard that sound last night when I took my car out! Enjoy.

From what I have read, yes. Probably 610-615 fwp with just that mod.

If you are talking crank #'s then absolutely! Your car has 580~ at the crank now and we have seen pretty consistent 25-30 Wheel HP gains with the Roto-Fab alone. So with the Roto-Fab you should be somewhere right around 610-615 Crank HP.

Feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions or for a great price.

Best regards,

Tyler
