Stillen vs. Smoky: your take on intakes

MY question is, what makes theirs make power when the other (short rams) lost power and are the same same setup? Are the TS tubes and MAF a different diameter?

MY question is, what makes theirs make power when the other (short rams) lost power and are the same same setup? Are the TS tubes and MAF a different diameter? Was there a tune on the car already for their CAI? I mean ther are only so many things you can change on a short ram that is only a foot long from the filter to the engine. Was the engine heat soaked for one and not the other? And WHY SO PRICY? The only thing I can see that would change things would be the MAF area. But if its true then thats would be great cuz I dont wont to take my bumber off to clean filters.

And yes Im finding it hard to believe a CAI is gaining 20 HP but who knows maybe our car is CAI lover unlike other cars.

Oh did they say what the before numbers were with the stock box?
