Default Re: MODS+DYNO Results

I'm not being negative or anything, I think your gains are Great!
But I did noticed on the K&N site that the picture shows that its a "boxless design" that uses the hood to seal the top from hot engine heat, but if the hood is open on the dyno runs....then it is sucking cool air from All 360 degrees. Now with the hood closed (such as when driving) you are mostly getting air from the fender hole(I believe). With the stock filter box assembly it makes little diffference in cfm if the hood is up or down.

I wonder if that would explain the extraordinary power difference.
It would be interesting if someone does a closed hood run with the same cai

Anyway NICE gains
