There's nothing wrong with a little reassurance before you spend a good chunk of cash. If no one needed reassurance then there's no point in ever dynoing a car...just data log your A/F ratio's while you drive around town and adjust the maps accordingly. No need to prove your HP gains to anyone and say "just trust me".
I'm not doubting your rep, automotive experience, or ability to work on cars but the physics has to make sense for a claim to hold water (or in this case air).

Of course you are going to make more power , cold air is more dense than hot air.

HP gains are possible with a CAI but NOT because the air coming in is any COLDER. That's a marketing ploy that just appears logical.
I'm gonna stop repeating myself now. My apologies to the OP for derailing further, happy Sunday!
