I have heard that the insulation or intake wrap lowers the temperature of the air in the intake by 15 degrees. Is this worth to buy? I think a kit costs $50. How much hp do you gain by using them on your intake?

come on ray, be nice. 1 hp isn't fair. mb 3 at the most... lol
pulled from >>> http://www.grassrootsmotorsports.com/celicast.html "The first pull on Friday showed power at 92.4 horsepower with a stock air filter and stock exhaust system. (1.1 more than pre-rebuild). Looking over our notes, we noticed that the last pre-rebuild dyno run was with a K&N drop-in air filter and the ECU recently reset. We popped the K&N air filter in for the second run, which yielded 93.7 horsepower, with a consistent gain from 4000 rpm on up. The ECU's fuse was then pulled for approximately 30 seconds and the car was run again, this time showing 95.3 horsepower and 103.6 lb.-ft. of torque." |
