With CAI's it won't be much... I'd say no more than 4 bhp...

Does it open up into the cowl area too? Wonder how the skinning gavin does would stand up to the heat? As a cheaper option you could skin a JCW air box if it could take the heat????

Would be very interesting to do some before and after tests with this and the JCW airbox...
