On a stock car you'll see very little. The intake flows well, so it is one of the necessary mods for cars with heads, cam, headers, etc.
Good mod, but there are better bangs for the buck at this stage

Since the only other items I have on the car that would relate to this are the Vararam and x-pipe, I highly doubt your quote of 3hp to be accurate.

I'm interested. Did the same thing in my 99/A4 (kooks lt) and ended up with 327rwhp not sure about the torque (need to find the dyno sheet). It was a conservative tune for a DD.
