Dyno'd the LS1 Miata Stockish, just 2.5" duals with no crossover, dumped before rear end, no mufflers, a 3.5" intake tube, generic filter, fuel pump, etc. Got in dirt cheap on a dyno day, otherwise I really didn't even want to dyno.
Air filter is so restrictive. Took it off, and picked up ~20whp and ~24 ft/lbs. Guess the tiny Pep Boys delight can't hang. I knew from the get-go it was too small, but it's what I had laying around to get the car running.
Did a best of 294/311, running so rich it pegged the AF at 10.0, so who knows how rich it really is. I think the way it sits, with a tune, 320-330whp isn't out of the question.
