Anybody know what the rwhp should be with just an intake, cus i'm wondering if my car is messed up.. i only got 284.6hp to the wheels with just the intake, post up your numbers if u can

Your car isn't messed up at all if all it has is an intake... that's not a bad # at all... and just so you know an intake will give you no more power.

I found an article in Import tuner... They pickup and average of 25rwhp on the dyno with the Blitz SUS intake. November 01 issue page 74.

"6. since i'm upgrading, should i replace the air intake as well?
dyno results show that cars with the bpu and no intake system dyno the same as those with either a k&n or a hks super mega flow. higher horsepower cars may benefit more from the installation of an air intake system."

Do you have an Automatic? that would give you lower numbers as well... because im 105% sure the magazine tests were done on a 6speed... plus all cars are different.

no, i have a 6-speed, i'm in atlanta georgia. it seems like everybody get's higher than i do.. don't know wut's going on

Zooom did you go to Dyno Lab or Engineered Performance?? When did you dyno?

I hit 298 RWHP and 295 RWTQ with only a K&N drop-in panel filter/airbox lid removed, TRD catback and 93 octane in 90 degree weather. If you have an auto, your HP is actually very strong. It's still not bad for a stock 6-speed. I think the only intakes that can give a measurable (although still small) increase on the dyno would be either a Max Air Box or something like it or a custom cold air intake that routes below the engine bay.

You should try removing your headlight sometime either at the track or for a short time on the road (during the day of course ) to see what a huge difference more airflow can bring. The dyno results would not show how much HP is really gained when moving, but you can feel it for sure.

Gotta love those magazines with their fair, unbiased testing. Wonder how much advertising Blitz paid for to get those results

i dyno last Saturday at Balance Performance. I heard that if i change my spark plugs and change my oil, the hp might increase a little bit. I'm just wondering if my car is putting out what it is suppose to or maybe close to it. my car is just straight stock with an intake(Blitz), 6-speed TT, 94. I'll trying to compare my car to everybody else, to see if my car sucks or not..

I would say you are just fine. I had the TRD catback, which may have added up to 10 HP/ft-lb. I wouldn't worry too much about stock dynos, you need to move on to BPU!
