If you're just gonna post bull**** and try to pass it as truth, there's a button that says logout at the top of the page.

Your numbers are either false or inflated.
Heres what KN gained on a supercharged car:

that chart is for naturally aspirated. the series 2 3800 sc engine was rated at 240 hp and 280 ftlb of torque. that chart is for my type of engine which shows a gain of around 15. sorry i round up. i know if says s/c engine but the chart is for N/A engine

that chart isn't.
They used a chassis dyno which measures the power at the wheels.Stock 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix 3.8L s/c
190-200 WHP is what a S/C series 2 typically produces.
A N/A series II is typically around 150-160 WHP.
01-11-2012
no. the chart is for the L67, the S/C 3.8.
they rate at 240hp, but do note that those numbers are CRANK hp. not to the wheels, as that chart shows.

either way its still got to be similar gains for my car. there isn't much of a difference between the engines. all i know is after i installed the intake there was clearly a noticeable difference in performance. Acceleration from a stop and while on a roll has improved big time. no matter what the numbers its a good upgrade and worth the money

So... You don't have a dynochart?

99...we've had some issues with outrageous claims by members/former members. As a whole the community can be quick to make certain that there's a tangible difference between data/numbers and claims. Try not to take it personally...but we take a lot of pride when we post information about our vehicles including real world results.
So um...how's the audio side of things?!
01-11-2012
how is it not realistic? K&n makes THE best intakes and filters. you guys make it sound like I'm physco. Its a legit performance part
01-11-2012
what do you mean audio side of things?

That's your opinion and that's fine, but don't push numbers without proof.
