if you compare both CAI , I would say my CAI would perform better and give a slight increase of power .
Remember I went on the car with a not fully tuned ECU with the new mods.
since my CAI has a bigger MAF Tube , the MAF table need to be tuned .
its not an easy process during winter time with the street tuning that I'm doing (slippery sometime and always in the lookout for cops and other witness).
with a complete tune, I'm positive that gain will be half more than the Stillen Gen3

I wouldn't give much credit to the intake manifold , the reason being other peoples with the M370 that has test pipe and/or an efficient exhaust lost peak power but showed the normal gain in the mid-range .
and even those with HFC did not gain much anyway because the M370 shift the peak torque point at a lower RPM range ,
lower torque = lower HP
