I was wondering if your cold air intake can hurt your performance rather than help. I ask this because everytime I open the hood there's a ton of heat coming out. When you're accelerating, you're sucking up all that hot air. It seems to me that this heat is only going to hurt performance. They do claim
13-18 rwhp but I don't know. When they do these dyno runs, it's done with the hood open and with the engine cool. My trap speed was 100.74 mph (see signature). When you do mods your mph is supposed to go not down.
I had my car dynoed and I lost about 5 hp and 6 tq on my second run. On the first run my car sat for 45 minutes before taking the first pull. I'm gonna make some passes at the track and change my air box between runs and see what happens.
I can't stand it when companies claim "x" amount of hp and you get "y" instead. They tell you the truth but not the whole truth. Just like SLP, in Pontiac Enthusiast, saying that they took a 04 in showroom trim and went 13.15 @ 106 mph. What they didn't tell you in the article was that they put on drag radials
Yes it's stock but I don't remember seeing drag radials in the showroom. Does anyone?
As consumers, we need to start asking more questions about their products and not just take their word for it. After all we do work hard for our money.
Any ideas is appreciated.
