This was a heated argument a year or so ago:
Dyno for RL with Magnaflow 3" & CAI
I can tell you when I drove it hard after I got it put on, there is a NOTICEABLE difference. The factory system felt restricted and the Magnaflow felt OPEN!
As far as the CAI, some have proven that they have LOST HP in the heat especially and have removed them. This is due to the closed enviroment of the SKY RL engine compartment and the heat from the turbo. It has been called a Hot Air Intake by some. Read the end of the thread above to see dyno numbers! |
Wow so it is not as much as stated....interesting. Usually when you open up a turbo charged ride you get more than that. That seems a little low to me but hey if you feel it in the butt dyno then it is worth it. Thanks for the input.
