thats my guesstimat... why dont you buy them both and find out for us?
I've already got the K&N intake.... installed it on the weekend... to be honest it sounds nuts but I feel like I've lost power not gained it ! lol but maybe I was just expecting too much. or maybe the loss of low down torque is just gvin me the impresion of loss of power. As for the ECU, I shal be getting the mild one as soon as I can. last time I heard I was told 3 weeks wait. As soon as I get it, I'll let u guys know !
yeah i got k&n intake... sexiest sound ever! growls at people
dont worry u didnt loose power... maybe a lil torque down low, but minimal... i got 130.9kw atws with k&n SRI, removed centre muffler, custom earthing kit...

hmmmm maybe I should give the SRI a go... I've only had the intake for 2 days and I'm already avoiding rainy days! lol I'm too paranoid now about getting water in there
have u noticed that when u get high up in the RPM range and specially above 6K u can almost hear the air being sucked in almost like a slight whistle ? I'm worried I may have a leak somewhere....
I still cant get over the sounds difference but... its outta this world. I cant eblive ppl complain it too loud ! I turn off my music now while I'm driving so I can hear the growl !

lol i love it too!
nah 6k is when vtec kicks in, loud sucking noise is good, means intake is working maybe pop the hood and get friend to rev engine a little if your worried about leaks, that way ull be able to hear if sucking is coming from pod or pipes...
i only had mine SRI because i installed it during winter so wasnt worried about engine bay temps... with summer coming soon i already changed it to CAI... if your using the k&n watersock ull be fine... ive driven mine in some instense rain before and afterwards checked the filter - dry as dry...
130.9kw is reading a bit high i think if it's done on Dyno Dynamics. Was it done in shootout mode?
If I remember correctly, Chris F's Euro with the Gruppe M Intake, Maximworks header and J's racing Exhaust was only at the 124kw mark and those are some of the best parts you can get for the Euro.
From what i've seen, a stock manual Euro makes around 105kw on that dyno.

thats EXACTLY what i was thinking....
pretty hard to believe those figures are true if its only a SRI and removed cat....
yeah is was done in shootout mode... and yes i know its not comparable to all other dynos, im justtrying to show the guy who bought that k&n CAI that he's not loosing power...
