there's obviously no real difference in adding the CAI after those mods ... and the numbers do not lie ... apart from the car sounding louder/more aggressive i cannot tell a difference in performance down low, midrange or uptop ..."
So why, then, the does he say this in the first post of this thread:
"WOW....WOW....WOW...though not everyone can expect to feel it like i did....the power difference is one that u cannot ignore...it's not slight! It's there and very noticeable..."
and...
"which leads me to this being the reason the injen is that much more powerful in the mid range.
injen 11hp and 11tq roughly"
Care to explain, sickyute?

how about u look at the link ... see there's mods etc etc ... on a 07 civic si sedan ...
then take a look at this thread u are in right now and see that it's related to a 06 civic Si coupe with a greddy exhaust ... stock engine wise ...
then check everything ... and u'll see it's basically apples and oranges u are trying to compare ...
FYI ... cai's make power on stock cars or untouched motorwise ... people don't like them cuz of the extra baggage they come with (bog, rich/lean, etc)... it's basically a trade off somewhat ...
in the order of my last dyno .. the CAI was last thing i did and did nothing power after the mods i already had on there....
see the difference?
