And the person who told you this owned these intakes, did before and after dynos and determined that he lost power by installing them right? Please stop spreading fud.

You may not make 18whp as they claim, but theres a definite power increase along with a much nicer growl. Nissan designed a great intake system, but to pretend that it was designed to make the most power without regards to cost is naive. You bought a $30k sports car, not a ferrari.
