Which short ram did you dyno on the 370? Do you have the graphs? I'm just curious. The Stillen is clearly the best out there in terms of performance. I just want to see how crappy the short rams are on the dyno

If they were comparable or even beneficial I'm sure the manufacturers would quote them in their product description as stillen does. I just cant see how there's zero improvement over stock when you are replacing the intake hoses and increasing the surface area via a replacement filter.

I know this happens a lot where one manufacturer is able to clearly out-perform the competition in terms of a specific aftermarket part. It's been a while but IIRC the AEM CAI for the RSX-S gained something ridiculous like 20 whp and the Hondata ecu re-flash completely changed the car.
