Dyno chart and new pics of the K&N intake!!

[SPLREDLINE]

Well I finally got of my phat azz and took some more pictures of the intake. I have had this dyno since December but did not want to release this until K&N posted there product on there web page . Anyways my car made 189whp with the stock intake and paper element. It was a 4th gear pull at 2000 rpms.done at 10:21 a.m on 12/08/04 the second run was with the intake. It made 211 max whp with the intake . done 2 hours later in 4 th gear at 2000 rpms. Torque was 174 stock and 191 with the intake. This product does work. I test drove a 2005 and you can notice the difference in how much more it pulls and runs through the gears. Anyways enjoy and I hope the people at K&N don't get made.

211 whp on a 4th gear run is pretty damn good.

Isn't 189 WHP really low?

Some guys are dynoing at 211 stock. . .

But at least this shows that the intake works. . .

Hey guys,

I actually purchased my Intake today from Saturn Of Cerritos, and installed it tonight as well. All I can say is hot damn it pulls hard, the powerband is sooooo much smoother and the bucking bronco effect that I thought was from the PCM needing to be reflashed went away completely. Its worth the money IMHO. I will post some pics tomorrow its 1 am here and Im dead tired...

It was a 4th gear pull so that's pretty damn good. All the stock pulls that clocked around 210 whp have been 3rd gear pulls.

Plus, aren't those pulls done with the airbox removed? I guess it just depends on what you definition of stock means. Removing the airbox will allow more air to enter the filter and engine, just like an intake right? His 1st pull at 186 was with the airbox on.

I thought it was low until I noticed that all the people who dynoed over 200 whp had done 3rd gear pulls. Anyways I figured that K&N does these kind of tests all day long to all different cars and has thousands of hours of doing this I think it is safe to say that there numbers represent the most accurate across the board. Anyways a must have for an upgrade. YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!!!! I know that 400 bones seems like alot but think of it this ways. It has been dam near 9 months for anything to come out for our cars and this product is a grade a piece. Would you of rather of bought 2 diffent items that total more than 400 bones or this one which cost a little less and gets you the horse power and torque that you can feel. Until the header and the upgrade kit from psi comes out I think this will fill the need for speed for now. Later.

Looks nice. Ridiculously overpriced IMO, but that's normal for a new item for a vehicle with little(no) aftermarket. Where is the filter located? I can't tell from pics.
Thanks for posting results!

[IERedLine]

Yea it was way overpriced, but what can I say, I got it anyways! LOL And As far as where the filter is sitting, it sits right in front of the left front tire . Basically the top left of the left fender...
