So are you saying that you would see similar gains with the resonator out and a hi-flo filter, as opposed to the short ram,and only a slight increase with the CAI?ie:
stock=standard HP
resonator out and hi/flo=slight increase with less noise than S/R
short ram=slight increase(same as above but with more noise)
CAI=bigger increase with less noise(about +2hp over Shortram)
