Actually, if you're running a CBE, the difference is only around 1 to 3 WHP.

Personally, I rarely drive the Z for an hour straight. That said, I doubt seriously it would take an hour of driving to heat soak the K&N. You're probably looking at more like 10 to 15 minutes at the most. Those heat shields really don't do a whole lot.
