Parking garage here, roomy enough spots. Can't afford gas for a cruise, I can barely afford enough to get home lol.

It's a little tough to judge any gains since dynos are not all the same, and I don't have a comparison when I was stock on the same dyno. It's also especially difficult for me to judge any gains because I did not DD the Z before installing the intake. I would have to say the butt dyno feels minimal gains. The ear dyno hears significant gains

I definitely did not buy this intake for expected gains in whp. And pairing it with an exhaust (which I DO plan to do... someday) will further lessen it's impact. For now, I'm content with the power I have. It was a blast to drive stock, so I have always been focused on making it look a little better and sound a little better. This intake was a good first step IMO since it is a little of both.

How long do you have the intake on the Z for? Usually it takes a week or two to let the ECU adjust to the new intake, I believe it must sound better
