there was a time when I was looking for the rpm to swap with my aem intake. It isn't that bad of an intake. Sound is amazing(heard it in person on one of churches cars), and it basically sits similar to the K&N without the heat shields. My plan was to modify it to come straight out of the hood. Similar to those turbo cars you see that expose the turbine. Sexy! Figured that would be the best intake possible.

That was the intake I was looking at before I decided I wanted 4 butterfly valves as opposed to one

Looks good overall...could use a little more tuning, like mentioned, just before VTEC and after 8000 mainly, but overall very nice

Especially for the minimal mods. You have a pretty strong factory motor...may I ask how you broke it in, and how often you do regular maintanence and what kind of maintanence. As that could be why yours is higher then the others.

not really. those that showed power loss were running only the hks exhaust. You won't gain much with just the hks sytem, but it's your test pipe that gave you the most out of your exhaust system.

why on earth would you dyno in 5th? Your forcing the engine to work harder than it has to...thus putting less power to the ground...
Are most people using 4th? 5th is closer to 1:1 but it is an overdrive gear. 4th gear is 1.161 and 5th is .971 With all the input on the dyno dynamics I dont think it will make that much of a difference (still learning how to use it). It has massive amounts of corrections that you can factor in. I've been putting down 218whp dynojet, I think thats respectable for the amount of mods I have, but I feel I'm lacking at the moment without a re-tune. I'm gonna tune it on Tuesday next week so stay tuned.
