Were those figures achieved with the bonnet up and a fan pointed at the filter?
They look like the K&N figures from their site?

Read the thread also linked in my original post chaps, yes the figures were taken with the bonnet up but the author typed a footnote saying that with the bonnet down the figures were only marginally lower, 1hp I think he mentioned.
And no fan was mentioned either.
And having had one for about 4 months now, I dont have any doubts about the reliability of those stats.

BTW the heatshield is not an open arrangement, it forms a tight seal against the bonnet when closed with the plump rubber at the top, it is very well thought out.

[QUOTE=bigbadben,Mar 2 2006, 07:55 AM]Mart - where did you get the kit from, and do you mind me asking how much you got it for?
Group Buy?
I'd be interested!
