Interesting, the dyno pic is actually from magnaflows website. Sounds a bit high to me though.

Ya thats most likely wrong. Aem says you get 9 hp from their CAI but yet no one seems to get that.

I got magnaflow exhaust and i noticed a gain . It sounds great and not to loud and also was relatively cheap.

I'm sorry..

but no.

if there was a real 9 hp increase, I'm sure all the magnaflow owners on this board would have noticed. heh.

its an overall decent exhaust though... but that ebay price isn't that great.

you can get it for 300 + shipping easily these days, groupbuy or not.

(it was $300 SHIPPED before when they had a groupbuy running 24/7)
