I tore my airbox out and threw a K&N on my TB so I don't even have a "cold air" intake, its more or less a short ram/hot air intake and I noticed the difference. I picked up over 3mph in the 1/4 mile over my best stock run with only my hot air intake and catback exhaust. I don't know accurate they are, I haven't dynoed my car, but it definitely did something to make my car faster. My 60fts were the same so it picked up on the top end. But to answer your question...probably not a whole lot.

Another thing to keep in mind is that "peak gain" numbers can be manipulated and made to sound very good, when [:'(] they actually suck.

that dyno looks good, looks like you peak in torq sooner and with more.





I'm still trying to find a way to slip my 400 big block outa my old w100 into my neon and I dont think it will fit!

It will fit, just gotta push the fire wall back and raise the hood, not big problems or anything, would be great to see a 700+ HP rear wheel drive neon though, that would really get those Ford guys huh
