So your opinion is to leave it stock?
My intension is that I want an intake that produces more torque and power above 4500rpm compared to the stock one. I am aware I might loose low to mid range efficiency but that isn't important for my car as its not my daily car anyway.
To Bluevitz.... are you sure it is way out? How did you conclude that? visual estimate?
