thanks svede1212 for the link, looks great. Have they talked about HP gains at all?
no but it would give as much or more HP gain than any under real world conditions. take a look at what the intake is supposed to do. 1 clean air, 2. provide air without restriction, 3. provide the coolest air possible. that's it. no magic.
all of the intakes get their gains from lowering air restriction. they don't really provide cool air very well. i know my filter is bigger than any you could put in a "Cold" Air Intake box and i'm sure that the MPD would also. i'm very leary of posted HP gains. remember that to get those "i gained xx HP with my Swooshy", you measure it on a dyno. dynos are not like the street or strip. factor in the lack of true cold air and you lose most of the gain.
another thing i learned from my street testing of intakes is the stock thermistor gets heat soaked in it's location and even moving it didn't get the best results. that's why i found a thermistor that has a smaller mass and reads air temp changes about 10x faster than the stocker.
