If I add a K&N filter...

to a stock 2007 G35 coupe, what increase in horsepower could I expect? Just the filter, not a whole intake system.
Thanks.

not much power gain maybe like 1-2 hp if that same thing goes for the whole intake system.

your going to get beat up by the veterans here on the site

for asking that question without doing a search.

You're all wrong, the drop-in is good for at least 20, maybe 18 at the wheel.

The same amount of HP increase you get with a $200 intake system. And if you decide to get a Warm air intake dont... Keep the OEM cold air setup.

If he spends an extra $9.95 to add the "Snipe Research" pocket turbo, it could be as much as 75-80

Based on a class of methods that approximate the conditional probability of distributions that arise when using observable variables like external air pressure and temperature, wind flow, mesh size, intake pipe diameter, etc plus when considering the characteristics of the VQ35DE engine, data has shown that the net gain is a coefficient of the measure in efficiency. Ergo, the ratio of return in monetary investment is the inverse square of horsepower output. Based on this formula, you will obtain a net gain of tan(log n) (where n is total horsepower).

You forgot to mention you have to take the Derivative of that x number to the y number then subtract it by 100 will probably give you the amount of HP to the whole car!!!
