I have (along with about 100 others on the forum) proven that the AFE (nor any other) doesn't make anywhere near the claimed power on a dyno, and my car isn't stock, so therefore if anything would have made more power. I'm just saying don't expect crazy numbers on the SS either from these, I would say expect a solid 5-8 hp at the wheels or so, some intake noise, and be happy.

Oh for sure, no one should expect 100hp/tq with an intake. It is just a supporting mod. Couple the intake with ported tb/im, less restrictive exhaust (getting rid of 2 cats via xpipe in my case), a tune... You'll be sitting at 430+ rwhp which is great to keep me going for a while and when the itch returns, procharge.
