Funny, the opening paragraph of the article says:

That's pretty laughable. But to be fair, these are Automobile mag's words, not Nissan's.
You're right, I think my mind made a connection with the available Nismo intakes and the production Nismo vehicle. Whoops. I AM now disappointed that my Synchro-Rev transmission doesn't do magic tricks for me

And Robert, in rereading your earlier posts you DID say you didn't think it'd provide appreciable performance gains unless they were in tandem with FI or extreme modifications. I guess it just depends on your price/performance ratios, but there's been a number of posters here with proven gains (10% isn't uncommon so far) by just upgrading the airflow.
