I did 3 runs each and then switched filters and did a run again, then switched and ran again..... I'm actually quite surprised at the time difference... I'm just wondering if it's my mind playing tricks on me LOL...

Two thoughts:

1)Im not so sure about your turbulence diagram.

2) is it possible that the ECU needed time to adjust to fully take advantage of the new filter?

thanks nick!

1. Maybe the diagram is not clear heheheh.. What I meant was that VTEC Engines need lotsa air in the engine and fast, the Turbulence caused in the filter slows down the intake charge of the air, thus possibly losing air pressure towards the engine...

2. With modern ECU, I'm sure it selfs learn quite fast.. Not Sure though

Onya nick - Nice times you are getting there. Have you broken 7 seconds yet?

Maybe we should try my rims on your car -- I want to see someone get under 7... at least once.. ! It would actually be an interesting review as to how much difference unsprung weight has to times...

Yoram, find a nice cool day and we'll go try and break the 7 second barrier together
