I'm waiting on a 90 degree elbo from spectre performance so I can finish the air intake system. New era picked up about 10 hp without a tune just by getting rid of the stock air box and adding their intake. I'll get to run it in a month or so at ozark dragway for a test and tune night. I would love to see some low 13's with this car. I should have another thousand miles on it by then, so, maybe a little more broken in.

I have tried 5 different varations and have seen -5 - + 2 hp with them on with out tuning , comparied to most CAI's that I install, were we have to retune or there will be a lean condition [ that means it's working ] . Try it at the track with and with out let us know how you do .

at this point K&N drop in and IAT relocation worked the best but still testing .
