I think it's also part of a marketing ploy to get the customers all hyped up about a product, get the word of mouth out about a "spectacular product" that's not available yet and all this R&D they're doing compared to the competition, and how great the product is going to be etc..to get the customer to have this "can't wait to buy feeling"....sort of like how we waited for the G37 to come out...and when it was released it was like a feeding frenzy, paying high price MSRP..etc..

no one is making assumptions. just talking about what will happen if and when these intakes dont make the claimed power. you have to expect people to be skeptic when every other intake has not made the claimed power or has lost power and injen is claiming crazy numbers...

All other intakes? I think there are 2 to 3 companies that have intakes out and 1 or 2 companies that said that this is not possible. I can see how everyone is skeptical due to Stillen and Fujita's dynos which people say are not true and losing power. Yet people on here take the word of a company who said they won't produce and intake because they cannot produce something that gives great numbers than the stock intake. What I really want to know is where are the people on this forum who actually dyno their car before and after a performance mod on their car? It would be nice if you guys actually did your own testing and posted it. I took the word of those people who bought the BERK HFCs but I still did a before and after dyno to see what the increase on my car was instead of just saying BERKs numbers where 100% accurate. Who knows, maybe the Stillen and Fujita intakes actually do produce increases.

That will be great then. Manufacture dynos are great and all but having dynos that members do themselves are 10x better. I just wish the individuals that bought the other intakes out there would do a before and after dyno.
