? about S&B CAI

I was looking on the internet for a CAI and was going to go with K&N, but happened to see this brand, S&B, I had never seen before. They claim that they are the only CAI on the market that will add 25rwhp with out a tune. I was just wondering if anybody bought one and their claim was correct. Reason I'm asking is because it is also a lot cheaper then the K&N and I'm doubtful if it is cheaper that it can out perform.

You get what you pay for...

I don't know that I would trust a CAI in this car without a tune to go along with it... no matter *what* K+N claims...

There was a CAI compairson that showed the K&N doing what it said. I had one without a tune for 400 miles and it was fine and could feel the diffrence. The only reason I didn't go with a CAI and tune together was a money issue and didn't want to wait and K&N was the way to go I felt.
They do tell you to disconnect the battery for an hour so the car can reset and adapt to it. If I had it to do over I would have waited and done both at once. Then you can feel a VERY noticeable jump in power.

It is S&B making the claim. I want a K&N, but if S&B will do this and is cheaper I may get it instead. I'll post the links about it. They even have dyno test results from when they installed it with out a tune compared to, of course, a stock gt.

this is the companies website

The dyno test is one of the pdf links.

This is the link where I first found the CAI and the info about how much HP it gives..
