SL 55 intake! Does it give any gain?

So wondered about this intake. There has been so much talking and writing about it BUT does it give any gains on m113 v8 N/A engines?

Has read almost all threads about this subject and have nobody other than Hooley' Dynoed thier car before and after with this setup?!?

Come on post your before and after numbers if anybody did a dyno

Or is this setup only waste of money.

i have installed it on my C32 2 days ago, i was runing before with 55splitter and K&N filters(c32), now i am with full 55 intake(OeM filters),
The AFR was 11.7-11.8 on all rpm range, with it the AFR became 12.2-12.3 and it is raising now at 5700-5800 rpm on 3rd gear to 14.5,
that mean it has allow more air to enter in my C32. need to adjust tune.
