I noticed a better sound and SOTP low-end torque improvement with a K&N FIPK. I also gained about 3 MPG. I recommend K&N.

These are my dyno results from 2 different GT's

I've had customers get 7-9 on the dyno on modded cars and .2-.3 in the 1/4!

GT's will benifit from a JLT!

On our '04 GT, first we installed Dragon's plenum and 75mm TB

http://www.stangpro.com/html/articles/dragon.htm

Then installed the matching DeMolet CAI.

About the same results as a Bullitt intake swap for a lot less money.

MM&FF will be duplicating our testing soon. This system is bad-ass!

I see no reason to pay $250-300 for a induction system.
My full CAI for the cobras replaces everything from the TB to the filter (-MAF) and is still less then that.
Thanks

If it's not a metal hot air intake I would say 1 or 2 rwhp if
your lucky! Densecharger is the way to go!
 

Go HoTO!

Before and after every mod I do to my Stang, I test the results with my Gtech Comp. and then record my results in my log book. This is how I test:
1) record 3 baseline runs. [ I add the total of the 3 runs, then divide by 3 to get the average]
2) install mod
3) reset EEC, then go for 20 min. run so the EEC can relearn
4) record 3 runs
I then remove the mod, do step #3, then record 3 more runs to see if they match my baseline run, go back, reinstall mod, then step #3 again before doing my final 3 runs. It's a little time consuming but it eliminates any errors, so I know weather the mod truely works or not. I did this test with my Mac fenderwell CAI, then retested with just the open K&N under the hood.Stock air intake with K&N and snorkle removed. And lastly, the Mac upper intake tube with stock airbox.
After a full day on testing, I found zero gains in any of the tests. On the bright side, I didn't find any loss in HP on any of the tests either.
I never tested any of the other CAIs, just the Mac.

Hey, that was really brilliant. I have one too and have done similar tests, but never that organized. I think the fault, however, with this test is that I think the gains would be soo slight even if the CAI gained 8 - 10 rwhp that the g-tech would not even notice it.

I have done tests with gear changes and n/a vs nitrous, and you can really see the results.

Dyno testing proves the power is there and in track testing it's up to the driver to utalize(sp) that power. Too many variables in track testing.
