[QUOTE="Wicked Fairlane, post: 13151678, member: 151598"] Bro, I wouldn't want you to spend your money on something that you didn't think was well justified. The biggest advantage with the Behemoth, of course, is to take advantage of the benefits of reducing inlet temps and getting the most available CFM BEFORE the blower. To get the most out of the engine, that's dependant on everything AFTER the blower. If you have cams, ported heads, exhaust, etc. in place and have a stock inlet...well, that's just silly. As far as real world data, I'm sure someone, somewhere in the world has done it, just not that many people know about it or it's not easily accessed information. So for me to say what kind of gains you will make would be a complete lie ... because I don't know. I can tell you if you have a TB capable of flowing 1600+ CFM bolted to an inlet that rated at 1000 CFM, you just spent that $400 or so for nothing. I hope this has been helpful whether you purchase an inlet or not. Call me whenever you want just don't call me Shirley. On a serious note, I'll tell you like I tell these college women at the bars on a Saturday night... "You need to let that puppy breathe". You'll notice the exhaust note through the headers would be a lil louder. If you already have all those mods, this should be the last thing you need under the hood. The blower has to come off anyway. I'm sure in one afternoon, if folks can R&R a blower kit, the can surely make adjustment to a CAI. I have faith in the People. Call me blind, but I don't see any numbers...or a sig line. And you're right...not everyone's combo will take advantage of this. I believe the 2.2L flows just a tad over 1000 CFM, maxed out. So I wouldn't expect anyone to buy something they don't need. Now if you want to for looks and just to show off, people are more than welcome to purchase it for whatever reason they want to. I've said before, I'm not on commission and I get nothing out of this deal, it's solely in place to help out as many people that can take advantage of it. Without knowing how much you have done, or plan to do... I can't give you an answer without thinking that I may misinform you.
