I can buy two upgraded turbos for the price of this intake...4K, I don’t see many options for intakes for our cars. Certainly this is very nice looking, great materials and all but just not worth the gain for the price (bang for the buck) IMO
I just changed the stock filters out for high flow, lower profile reusable ones and noticed a good amount of seal of the pants feel (SOTPF) and more wheel spin. Have to imagine for me to feel it, must be a good 20-25 rwhp gain....that only cost 150 dollars

Agreed, even at half that price not sure I’d be a buyer. Waiting to see what BMS comes up with! Also, the Weistec one is half the cost and claims same gains...

I hate to break it to you, but I have been racing and building 9 and 10 sec cars a long time, and it’s way more than 2-5 hp. I even had two others dive my car before and after. Tell you what, I am getting a tune this week and before tune, I’ll have throw back in the paper filters, dyno, put the high flows back in then dyno. I’ll bet you 100 Forum Virtual Bucks it’s more than 5hp at the crank buddy! I will say it’s at least 15 at the wheels.

Not gonna lie, I f#!=/+g love this Airbox. I don't even care about gains. If anyone has a used one for $1k he be all over it... And that's saying a lot because I've never purchased an intake for more than a couple bills before.
