How much HP does a cold air intake add to a Mazda 3?

then if its just money, why not buy it?


I already did! (hump) I will have it by Wednesday. (hippy)
It kinda sucks to have money and there not be any parts for my car, it was the opposite with my last ride. I guess this way I can dyno each mod at a time.

yea, true, i guess people would like to believe what people who are selling the product say, but oh well, their Butt dyno tells them a gain of 15whp! lol..

go on an actual dyno before you install an intake, then the same day install it and run it again, lets see your gains...

I will, how else will you get accurate gains for new mods?

Its not the greatest but it does respond better then other engines out there. I don't see why you guys are getting so upset about this, is it because you installed an intake on your car with a header and full exhaust and only got 3whp? (crazy)

acctualy i didn't waste my time on intake,header,exhaust, because i know there aren't much gains from those, i went with a turbo, check the sig buddy...
 
also, im not upset, just making sure when you realize you only gain 2whp from your intake you don't question what happened.

Nice car.
Thats the difference with this car you will get good gains from those mods.

intake/header/exhaust is obviously the most you will get from just "bolt-ons" but it still isn't that much and i thought we were talking about gains from a intake alone? anyhow i dont feel like getting into a dispute over this, its been talked about alot, so if you gain 10whp from just an intake(wont happen) i applaud you and your engine!

Well first off I never said anything about 10whp from just an intake.
Heres AEMs claims. I will be sure to post my dyno numbers after mine is installed.
