A 4rwhp gain can easily be attributable to statistical noise

Is this not a technical thread?

Do you like spending $100 on parts that are no better than stock and may even be worse than stock when it comes to filtration?

The E55 comes with two roughly 6" by 12" air filters. Do you really think that these can't flow enough to handle some 600crank hp?

Not everybody is into forum infighting. He asked, he received an answer, he move on. I doubt he is losing any sleep or thinking of this thread.
