Hard to believe the dyno #s.. Seems any good aftermarket air intake could do that...as there is others with good filters...
Now driving , is where the true results may be seen..

Air off radiator
I have a monitor that keeps track of the air intake temps and if I am driving 5 miles and hour or faster the intake air is within 5 degrees of the outside air. At a stoplight maybe it gets to be 10 degrees hotter than the outside air. So only at idle do you see any heat increase but once you get moving it goes back to the outdoor temps. I guess the radiator fans are sucking the hot air away from the intake area.

Ram Air did a YouTube video a month ago and they just finished editing it down. They installed the Ram Air “Hammerhead” intake on a Grand Sport C6 and made +23 rwhp without a tune and with a tune made +54 rwhp.
The weather was 95F / 85% humidity in Houston (not the best for getting big numbers). Again these numbers only show the airflow improvement and not the actual ram air benefit we offer. This was also a completely independent test. Ram Air supplied the intake and installed it, but the dyno, and tuning were done by 510 Race Engineering.

I bought this intake a couple of months ago. Very nice piece with a huge panel filter getting cold air through the front like ram air. I will say this, it needs a tune. The fuel trims are +15-18% going down the highway so it trips o2s in a lean condition. More air equals more power. I'm going to get new o2s and tune it with my LG Super Pro LTs I just got in (:

This to me and others is not an answer to the question asked by bordovskyj. I worry that people will be turned off by the lack of direct answers to questions and will go else where. I myself have been following this thread waiting for a direct answer to peoples questions(which are the same as mine) and being concerned for your business I will tell you I myself might go with a different system due to lack of a real answer to specific questions. I'm not being mean or rude. It's a simple question.
1.Is there any surging or other drivability issues without a tune?
2.Does the system need a tune?
