It showed no loss when compared to a run we did with the stock tube and no filter. I know that was dangerous but it proves the set up has no restrictions. I have a problem paying $250+ for a brand name tube and filter that will only net maybe 2hp. It's not cost effective, hp - $$$ ratio.
I love it; hence why your signature just says "intake". That's all it is, a "no name" intake. lol.
I am curious though. Do you happen to have the before/after dyno charts of the intake? The revup motors have been proving to be very sensitive to the airflow characteristics of several long-tube CAI's. The cars that have had problems have seen very odd torque curves below say 5k rpms. It's unclear at this time whether the culprit is the air velocity, or odd turbulence within the tubes.
Actually, don't quote me on what I just said. I can't remember if this is happening on revup's in general, or when used in combination with the mrev.

Msedanman - Thanks for the kudos.
