I'm getting a dyno tune next week and will post torque and rwhp numbers. But I'm here to say the single CAI from needswings is EVERYTHING they said it would be. I'm seriously breaking traction at 40mph from 1st to 2nd. Reminds me ALOT of a stroker 350 I built years ago. It's right there in torque and hp. I should get more with the tune.
Calcs indicate there's probably only 0.2psi difference between double and single CAI's = 1bhp (@~650cfm)
I agree with the comment that a double CAI would provide more balanced air going into the SC intake, but this would all get evened out in the cooler/intake plenums though.
Do you have a Pulley saver kit with the EC aluminium 62mm?
Are you at Sea Level or altitude?
If you can, it would be interesting to hear your AFR's with the 62mm and CAI. If you're logging , your grams/s air intake is another interesting one....should be about 330-350g/s at 6200rpm. There is some info indicating your fuel pump/injectors might be at their limit with this setup.
