Everyone is talking and no one is doing so I took it upon myself to gather some of the major intakes on the market and take them for a dyno run.

First off before I go off on any information I would like to give major props out to

Chris and his Crew at HOOK-UPS Import Tek in Upland for helping me find out the truth. Without Chris's expertise on dyno testing and his calibrated DYNOJET none of this would be possible. He's very interested in helping out the Scion community so anyone needs anything please hit him up. He supported us and we should support him!!!!

Also props to:
Steve @ bBist.com for directing me to HOOK-UPS Import Tek. If you all don't know then check out the cool stuff that www.bBist.com offers.

Also to these people/companies for donating/lending intakes to the cause:
Dude w/ the AEM (Still in the box from the dealership)
The Crew @ Injen (Thought it was cool what I was doing even if it didn't favor them)
Eric @ E.L. Prototypes (Sorry about the last minute notice)
John @ SPFR (Has since taken the intake back for further inspection)***EDITED***

I thought i would add the results from Besk one's Dyno testing of the SPFR intake. These are non-biased tests done at the Magnaflow Dyno facility. There is a thread with pictures and video elsewhere in the "power hungry" forum.


Stock: HP: 98.6 Torque: 103.4

SPFR Shootout Intake: HP: 103.2 Torque: 105.5
SPFR Inventory Intake: HP: 103.1 Torque: 103.7
SPFR Besk one's Intake: HP: 103.6 Torque: 105.0 !

Gains:
Shootout Intake: HP: 4.6 Torque: 2.1
Inventory Intake: HP: 4.5 Torque: 0.3
Besk one's Intake: HP: 5.0 Torque: 1.6
