Sorry to burst your bubble but all air filters flow the same regardless.......the only way they are going to flow more is with a larger surface area or being rammed in ie OTR - also no dyno can simulate the airflow being rammed in so you would actually pick up more horsepower on the road then on the dyno

I see your in Pakenham you should go down to LSX garage and talk to them about tuning they are well known in your area
Yeah Munz i did go down there and had a chat, But the place im taking it to is in Hallam and they do know there stuff, I get what your saying regarding the OTR but for now ill stick with the K&N air filter in the standard box, Later on i plan to get a mild cam and head work done and when i do ill get an otr...I think with what i am doing ( X-Force headers 1 5/8 into 1, and 2.5 exhaust and straight trough mufflers + tune of engine and trans i will hopfully be more than happy, From what i have read everyone who has has a custom tune etc etc has been over the moon...Just for your info one of the makers of an OTR claimed to have an increase of 14 rwkw, so thats what i was going off...

Cheers

Steve

An OTR will massively out perform the stock air box and K&N filter .

A link was posted of the Orssome OTR, I'm not a fan of them. The two OTR's I like are the DuSpeed and the VCM, both are fantastic and worth every dollar!

You might not think 14rwkw is alot, but its all about throttle response & the amount of torque increase in the rev range.

14rwkw is a great increase. People these days expect alot from nothing. Open your damn wallets and loosen your ass hole if power is your concern.
