Well DrMayf,
The air box will probably not make a huge difference on the chassis dyno as
that is a static test without the car speeding down the road. I still will
try the stock base and filter and then the flat base and taller filter to
see if there is a gain due to filter size. Larry P. and I shared some
discussion over this a few weeks ago. But I do plan on going to the Drag
strip and see if the same 2 tenths of a second ET drop occurs that I have
experienced on other cars where I installed a fresh air system (20 HP at
speed due to a cooler denser charge of air). I suspect a 2 fold gain due to
cooler air as well as a marginal 'Ram Air' effect although the scoop opening
is not as large as I would like. Trying to keep it looking relatively stock.

Best Regards,
