Maybe on the dyno... My homebuilt cone filter conversion took half a second
of my 0-60 time compared to a K&N panel in the stock air box. But I take the
air dangerously near the ground and don't breath the 300oF air next to the
turbo as the TAP unit does... I do have some problems with dirty filters.
