I think it proves that all it does is change the sound, which is still worth it in most cases lol.

Quite surprised at the pod filter one in the last video where even the k&n drop in filter did not perform as well as a new stock filter

Its flawed testing (as per usual for MCM, where its mainly for entertainment than any real reference).

They didn't take into consideration about the need for ECU to adapt. Also, peak HP doesn't mean anything in terms of modding the car. Its also got to do with the mid range increase (hp/torque) and etc.

thats what i thought re the ecu
if we install a CAI do we need to flash ecu or does it learn by itself?

most of the gains are mid range increases? how would you test that?

Question 1: no it'll learn
Question 2: dyno, but as usual a long tube CAI you'll gain mid and top range, not so much lower end.

What about the shorter mode SRI? Is it better for lower end or high?
