Also, physically limiting air intake probably means they adjusted the fuel accordingly in the ecu tune also.

Believe it or not, Chrysler didn't do any holding back. And if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. Why go to the expense of redesigning and manuafacturing a less efficient intake? Or even reprogramming the ECU? The whole idea of the car was for Chrysler to get a stylish well-designed higher class car into production cheaply. That's why almost every part on the car comes from the SLK 32 or the CLK series. Our intake is the same as the SLK 32.
