Way.

Don't read too much into it. And don't waste your time on an intake that doesn't require a tune; they usually slow a car down because while not letting more air in than stock, they do get heat soak. Get a good intake, do some datalogging, go to the track. That's the only way to quantify your gains and see how driving technique affects your times.

Fuck it. I'm just going to stop saying anything anymore.

I know that I'm going more in-depth than is really necessary, but sorry for asking for insight and opinions for other people.

No butt-hurt.

I'm just fucking tired of getting ragged on for applying actual logic to a situation.

Logic is the basis of my thought process. That is how I think of a situation and develop a theory and/or conclusion. I'm not just saying shit out of my ass with no idea of what I'm even talking about.

Yeah, I get I lack the actual racing experience that would prove otherwise. Oh well. When I get proven wrong, I will accept I was wrong.

I will admit I was naive when it came to intakes about these cars. I let the fact the K&N was a closed box outweigh the true reason I was purchasing a CAI. I should've put that aside and been more focused on the power I wanted to gain rather than keeping a stock appearance.

No offense to Jay, but I think we are both equal in driving ability. The first race of the video shows that we were neck and neck until I was locked out of 5th gear. There were other races that showed the same.

I really think that my tune is not as strong up top as it should be, hence why he was pulling away at the higher RPMs, and also why he was able to catch and pass me at higher RPMs as well.

Always research. I spokw with people on here and googled for near a month before I bought a intake.
