From all of the dyno testing we have done, the gains have been very minimal and in most cases next to none! I have dyno charts that shows a car losing mid range power and some torque in trade of 3 horsepower up top. For $500+ and the time or money to install it, I feel that you can spend your money elsewhere. Buy the K&N drop ins and call it a day!

If anyone has any questions comments or concerns PLEASE do not hesitate to ask. I can show dyno charts with many different combinations. What I can tell you is that the stock intakes do the job just fine... even with long tube headers installed.
How come some threads and also Stillen are claiming impressive gains from the G3?
