Default K&N induction

Has anyone else read the new Camaro Performers mag. I was reading mine over the weekend and they had an article on the K&N Induction. They claimed it put 15RWHP on the dyno. Is there any truth to this claim. The reason I ask is because I have the Volante induction system and in my opinion I think the Volante would be more effective overall with use of the Ultra-Z, Mecham hood on a Camaro or the ram air hood on a TA.

15RWHP sound a tad on the high side.....but every car is different and every dyno is different.

I would keep your Volant. I'm sure you paid enough for it. Not worth it to change IMO.
If you looking for some cheap and easy hp install a cut out to help that slowmaster exhaust breath. Sounds incredible too.
