Zero gain on dyno on my ZLE. I doubt you’d gain more than 10 on any accurate dyno. I can not imagine a 26 HP gain with any CAI on an untuned stock engine. The stock intake is quite efficient. Also, an engine is only going to gain HP from increased airflow to the extent it can effectively use it. Add a CAI for looks or supercharger whine or in anticipation of future mods. You may notice some increased throttle response, I did not. But if you are going to stay stock, don’t spend money on a CAI to chase dyno numbers or increase your odds at the stop light olympics.
