Cold Air Intake Increase HP?
I have a 2001 C5 and recently purchased a dual 7.5in cone type air filter to replace the stock air intake. I made the purchase mainly for looks. But the product description for the new air intake says that HP can increase by as much as 18 HP using the new air intake compared to the stock intake.
My question is how could the HP possibly increase this much and if it can't how can the manufacture of the custome air intake make this claim?
Seems to me that the engine will draw in the same volume of air w/o boost.
