[QUOTE="TurboTJ, post: 1359881, member: 33074"] Holy crap! This thread is why I was hesitant to get a Raptor. The OP states his experience/credentials and every insecure ***** feels threatened and tries to call him out. Probably because if the OP speaks the truth, they feel less manly/rich/endowed/successful. Let’s just assume he is telling the truth and if not, who cares? Back on topic. Cobb is a reputable source of information. However, they might have tested under different conditions. For example, intercooler spray can net massive horsepower on a heat soaked IC and little in other cases where evaporative cooling is not as significant. Similarly, if the OP had a dirty OEM air filter or screwed up MAS, he might experience real gains from upgrading. On my other vehicle, some CAI’s net decent HP but this is mainly due to allowing more undetected air into the engine. Since the engine runs on the richer side of things, this creates more efficient combustion and decent HP gains. I.e. the intake allows more air and a leaner mixture. Or maybe he’s just trying to fool everyone to thinking that his intake is good because that’s what he likes to do in his spare time!! That evil genius... [/QUOTE]
