G-Tube bettre than Z-Tube ?

I've been installing a OEM Z-tube on my 2005 X and after a couple of mile ... i got the feeling that i have less torque than with my G-Tube, can it be true ?

I feel a deeper sound with the Z-tube ! But less torque

Can the problem is that i dont reset my ecu after the intallation ?

thnx guys !!

Can i be the first to say that changing the intake tube will have ZERO effect on performance, only sound... sorry, i think its all in your head man.

yeah the only thing it changes is the induction noise. Double check for any leaks, but likely its just your mind playing tricks.
