Damn Rob, this is gonna be a hell of an experiment. I'm definitely in for results and I wouldn't mind throwing in some cashola to support the dyno runs. I'm glad that you are going to keep it right on the dyno for the most accurate results (even if there is some variance). This will be VERY helpful for people who are not quite ready to go FI and want to get the most out of their NA build.

check the first post, I already have a stock intake and k&n panel that I will be testing.

ya brit, there just isn't a solid base of information for our intakes. I'd like to put to rest all the mystery behind them. I hope to do a more comprehensive review of any intake a manufacture sends me, while power counts for a lot, some intakes have other features that might make them more appealing. I actually doubt any manufacturer is going to send me their intake but I figured I'd send them all an email in hopes that they will want some cheap advertisement.

chris, was it you that said you had some K&N filter cleaner? I'd love to use some on the pop charger and my panel filter since they have some miles on them and have never been cleaned.

Hopefully I will have a prototype to send you soon. I am pretty sure I can smash on all the competition.
