    With just a performance CAI like from K&N for example you would only gain on a S/C GP my guess is anywhere from 5-7HP MAX 10 HP, if your lucky. That's IMO since the stock air box is i believe restrictive and is there to suffocate the poor car. The way for you to gain 17 HP would mean you would have done stuff like headers/DP or full exhaust to again LET THE CAR BREATH
