So seriously now, How much did I gain? Options

[HyperDeathKill]

I just got my injen intake installed, boy I love it. Much agressive. Sure I "feel" a little bit of a gain, but how much did I really gain if anything?

Anybody know concrete numbers to the wheels? Or corrected HP? I would love saying I "added" 5 more HP to my car, even though a certain amount only made it to the wheels because it's corrected.

How about a Greddy Exhaust?

is there really a gain? I know that more air the better but the stock filter was in a vacuum sealed plastic box sucking cooler air from that squarish tube that runs down toward the left headlight! Versus more air that is probably hot from the engine?! The cooler stock air is better but the injen's more air is also better but its hot air. in the end doesn't it just all even out to = zero hp gain?

theres definetly a gain, but I think your right about it being minimal due to the warm air factor. I went to a shortram first, then a CAI several days later and the cold air makes a big difference. probably 1-2 hp for a shortram due to high flow filter element, and maybe 3-4 hp for a CAI. measly gains I know, but the shift in powerband makes the car much more fun IMHO.
