how much hp does the aem cai add to a standard stage 2? (up/dp/ap stg 2)

 

im thinking of getting one but not if it only adds a few ponies, i know it works great w/ a bigger turbo but i want to know if id be better off getting a drop in w/ my stock turbo at stage 2 levels?

 

some dyno's from TDC...from the numbers seem like a stage 2 car.

 

SPT didn't do that great....

Hey, everyone, I thought this might help.

Daniel,

Thanks for writing. No aftermarket tune is required when using a K&N intake system.

Kind Regards,

Dear Sir or Madam,

Good afternoon. I put a K and N typhoon in to my 2005 Subaru Legacy GT. I followed your instructions, including disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes, to reset the computer. It’s the only modification I have made, I get no CELs, and I can feel the difference in torque. I’ve posted on a Subaru forum and some other readers have suggested that I have the car tuned. Do you think there is a need to have the car examined? They make it sound like your product could harm my vehicle. Thanks.

Daniel

You just did exactly what her statement in her signature says not to do.

Your car will not blow up if stock with an intake, you just aren't getting the full benifits. Now if your car was more aggressively tune(stg 1or2) for the stock box this is where there could be a problem.

And FWIW your email was answered by "Karri" in customer service. :lol:
