On two different dynos, two different types of dynos at that... you cant call that an objective 40hp increase.

I don't know any #'s yet, and honestly, I don't really even care about the #'s

. Without a doubt it's made a BIG difference. The car has a more "violent" feeling when you lay into it.

That's pretty significant HP.

You did a base line (no intake) and then ran again with the intake on the same dyno, same day, etc.
And you did this at two different dyno's.
You took the intake off the car and did a baseline. Then put the intake back on the car and ran it again on the dyno. And you made 40hp each time?
Can see see the dyno sheet (baseline vs intake)?

If that's true, where do I sign up for my intake?

I cant tell you any thing new, You have to hold on till Vararam tells you, But that is what i got, As i say my unit ran closer to the best AFR at 12.4 to one, no fall to 10 to one like some of you out there and it was at 100+ degrees out side.

Have you run a 1/4 on the OEM unit that will be a good test.

You know i love you but if he posts a # more than 40 will you believe.?

Is Vararam sending an intake to the intake comparison dyno testing?

yes, that would be a good test...and no I haven't done it. The closest dyno is 5 minutes away, the closest track is over 2 hours away...just not do-able right now.

I do not think that they will as this is a beta unit.

I just went with the new erA, I am hoping to exceed a 20-30 rwhp with a tune.

absolutely not. When we were tuning the car we kept on saying how we were happy it didn't have that ricey "sucking" sound. It does change the engine noise a little, but it sounds mean.
