Does your car do this?

Very much. Not only does it look killer, it made a noticable seat-of-the pants difference in acceleration. I have been playing with my intake and filter system for a while. First I installed the famous K&N and removed my silencer. Much better. Then after a while I decided to run an open element under the hood. It looked awsome but performance suffered due to the hot air entering the engine. Then I installed the MAC CAI and noticed a pretty substantial gain. Of course if I had not already hurt my performance by running an open element the gain would probably have been less noticable. Overall I am happy with it and find the claim of an 8-12 HP gain pretty reasonable. I have pics of the three stages I mentioned and plan on posting them soon.
