They can free up some HP in the event that the intake was a restriction. Obviously ones that put the intake filter right by a heat source are probably going to be more detrimental than not. The 10HP they always claim is fairly bullshit, especially on I4s. You could possibly see that gain on a V8. Assuming they're talking about WHP and not imaginary crank with no accessories running on an engine stand horsepower.

They sound great. That's why I've put one on all of my cars since 2005.
>>
>removing filter encapsulated in a pressurized airbox
>converting to open engine bay drawn pod filter
Sounds legit
>>
>>16072794
Make sure that they are as close to the exhaust manifold as possible for maximum sound.
It will be fuck as fuck

It's almost like all aftermarket intakes aren't the same quality and don't have the same amount of engineering going into them.

Show me one turbo car that doesn't benefit from I/DP/E please.

Just because your air intake is less restrictive doesn't mean you are going to get more air. The engine decides how much air it needs, and packing in more than the ideal air:fuel ratio is pointless
>>
>>16072796
>encapsulated
>pressurized

sounds restrictive as fuck

youre running a mile

you want some cool air through a straw or breathing in of warm air through your nose/mouth?

Are the springs linear or progressive? Is an alignment being done?

...got any pics?

Never seen this, but I`m not a bikefag.

Prolly just about any modern one. They might spool up a bit faster, but unless the ecu is told to do something different, you arn't going to see a big hp increase.

>They can free up some HP in the event that the intake was a restriction
My oldest car, a 92, has enough intake to crank up the boost a bit without being a restriction.

>>16072806

What car is this looks familiar

I put a short ram intake into my car because the previous owner fucked up the previous intake and it was easier to just swap it than try to find the parts and fix the weird snorkel system honda uses

This.

I wish, it's Duratec20. Looks the same, different deck height though.
