on THIS forum you wont see too many people praising the drop-in. On at least 2 other forums i can think of this drop-in gets more love. So im curious to see just WHAT the gains are.

if works agrees to participate and send up something, then I will test it. But if not I am going to pass. an SRI and CAI 4 way shootout seems good enough to me no?

THe last thing to consider is if I should do this on the stock exhaust or upgraded exhaust and if so, what exhaust. Since that question is just full of issues righ there I think its best to do all this on stock cars.

Yeah, I'd agree that its best left on stock exhausts.
The 4 way shoot out is a good idea, however the problem is that we already know the CAI is better than SRI from your previous review about the Injen. So in theory it would only be a comparison between the two SRIs and the two CAIs, unless that's what you are shooting for anyways.

Regardless, I'm glad there's someone willing to do these kinds of tests. I never see anything like this in the Evo X forums, except there's a TON of options (for intakes) for that car already.

Contact with

RRM = Call scheduled for monday
AEM = Limited front end talk, waiting for final approval
INJEN = "Call back next week"
Fujita = Calling head project Tech next week to findout if there is another V3 or not
There was a delay in making calls, until we actually got the scientific method down for our testing. Everyone wanted to know how are we going to test it, who is doing the testing. how many runs, so I had to get that down to a T. Now the independants are happy with our testing method. now back to the phones

things may improve for the dyno event, talks to get it sponsored out right, that will free me up to hold the dyno day sooner and with a bigger line up of products.

We will see.

Keep you updated
