wtf... while the whp makes sense how come youve got so much torque?? stock i have 410whp and 449wtq. and yours is modded right? I wonder if it would whine like urs with this box or if its due to some of ur mods.

I was thinking the same thing. At first I thought that's some HIGH torque numbers fer a stock 55k motor. Then I realized he was modded. Then the HP numbers didn't make sense...

please don't forget my questions about the dyno procedure, was it done with the heat shields in place and was the hood open or closed?

the dyno was done with the hood open and heat shields were installed.
....
the car is making lower numbers because i have a very mild tune to compensate until i have a HE installed...

your asp pulley does not seem to be giving you any hp despite you having an ecu tune

there are two carbon fiber heat shields that wrap around the filters and connect to the inlets. I took them out for the picture to accent the filters for the picture.
blackbenzz- its not the oem box wrapped, it is 3" stainless steel piping mandrel bent, with a piece to cover the engine bay, all covered in carbon fiber

i put up this tread to share my experience with a new product and you make an attack on my car? why may I ask.....i hope i am not over reacting...
![nix](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/nixweiss.gif)
and as i said earlier my car is running a mild tune because i do not have a Heat Exchanger yet, after i get it, i will have it retuned by LET (who gives free retunes for life, unlike anyone else) and get more hp....

i am just a customer sharing an experience,
i only did a dyno because i did not know what numbers my car was putting down after my mods and it just happened to be at the same time that the intake came out. I tested out if the intake did anything, and it did, and i posted the results.
i dont mean to offend in any way, in fact i want to do the exact opposite and express my happiness with my new mod

WOW, another possible great way to increase HP in our cars!!!
If possible, can we get a pic of the shields around the air-intake or whatever it is that is preventing the hot air under the hood from being sucked up. I am very interested, but just wanted to see all of the parts for this air-intake mod. Thanks.
