Agreed, It doesn't increase air flow. At least not by itself.


A larger Throttle body and some exhaust mods will help put more volume through the cylinders. A good dyno Tune will maximize the effects of those improvements. Arguably it may be possible to achieve 265-275 HP or more but the limits of physics put the top gains possible to well under 300HP. And for the money invested in all that plumbing and tunes,,,;, one might as well trade up to an SRT, if available.
