Your test may show an improvement, but if your testing method is not statisticlly significant the gains don't exist.

The only way to make it SS is to test this product vs a stock car on many different dynos on many different occasions.

The bottom line is, I can take a stock GT3 and run it twice on the same dyno and get different HP results.

And the stock unit is sealed to the scoops outside, so how can your unsealed unit bring in any air colder than the stock sealed unit can?

Did you ever think that it is the FILTER itself that improves the flow and NOT your system?

Have you tried a BMC filter in the stock sealed box unit?
I'd bet the results would be similar.

Air will flow more easily through a BMC filter than it would through the stock paper filter. I notice that your filter is larger, but being larger isn't going to bring anymore air into the engine unless the size of the intake is enlarged.

We did a large # of pulls on the car stock and then the same # of pulls on the same exact car, right aftwards, with our intake and BMC filter.

If you look at the dyno, it made significant power across the board with our intake and BMC filter.

We aren't trying to trick you with dyno data. We have it clearly written out on the sheet for you to see.

I'm glad that others have emailed and called and like the system and the power that it's making. We are happy with it as well.

We are in the works with our exhaust system on this GT3, so keep posted for that

Ok but to me its the BMC filter that's providing the gain and not your intake. And a BMC filter won't cost $800.

Mishref, not in our weather conditions. The high heat, humidity, and dust will kill your filter.

You are probably best off just swapping filters and keeping the stock intake.
