Your post would be as arbitrary as racing a stock ZL1 against a TM T-Body equipped ZL1 & saying the Throttle Body is not worth it as the outcome of the race has more Variables then just the Modification.
I complimented the looks and sound of a rotofab and understand the merits of a CAI. The video post isn't intended to be absolute data. It is simply a real world example that may mean nothing to some and may help someone else. Another tidbit from VIR...we did this same pull more than once, and it was a similar outcome every time. I have also been on track with a stock '17 ZL1 A10 and my car was a bit faster on every straight. Yes, there are a lot of variables but something made my car faster when the driver is taken out of the equation. I understand why you are questioning my post as one instance is all you see/read here. The purpose wasn't to bash the Rotofab product either as it is well built and fits great on the one unit I have seen in person. A "no tune" CAI may not provide a HP increase that justifies the money spent if HP is your mission on a stock ZL1.
