and I remember seeing a dyno Where it went

Aem v2 > Injen > Aem v1 .....

still Cheap ebay + k&n = the best.... didnt someone post a dyno comparing it to a aem v2, and the ebay proved better? I think i remember seeing that here, maybe it was somewhere else... anyway yea

i vote for the ebay piping and a k&n filter.

or, you can get a turbo and use that to shoot in air instead of just sucking it in, but it wouldnt be feasible for you.

I cant confirm or deny that, I'm sticking strictly to whats been proven on our H/F series engines, or what i've been exposed to seeing anyway. Stuff that works for B's doesnt always work as well for H's (regarding brand).

Bypass Valve is a waste of money in my opinion because the valve only works if the filter is completely submerged in water. If you live in Florida or Washington, or any other place that sees a lot of rain, then go ahead and buy the Bypass Valve, for exrra assurance, or better yet go with a short ram intake.

Bypass Valve = Waste of Money and looks bad under the hood.
