I liked the Puffo when I tested it, and I've always hated the FIPK. However, I really don't like the "science" behind this test.

Temperature isn't as much of a factor as barometric pressure, humidity, and wind speed / direction.

Hahaha yeah I agree my test was not very scientific. I'll see if I can do a back to back test at the track next time I go out and try to measure ambient temperature and top speeds. I read your post where you tested it last night and it all makes sense now. What is your take on the science of this intake? Do you think the gains are due to the location or does the lenth/shape have to do with it?

And for you what's the best intake on the market? Maybe there is one which is better on mid range and top end ... Do you test your ontake yet or not?

Thanasis, if you are coming to the track this weekend we will try to add some more science to your reviews! And we can test the carbon fiber version although the gains are the same as your fiberglass version.
