Guess I missed that. I always disconnect the battery anyway whenever I'm working on the car.

I had the AEM on the Auto I had. Yes I did get gains, but I got alot of noise. I hated it. That hiss, the vtec noise.... Some might like it. I didn't. Personal taste I guess.

That's an interesting comment considering that most people get the intake because they want that noise!

The hiss is kinda odd, but you get used to it.

I really wouldn't call it DEBUNKED. You don't know what else is going on that the OBD2 isn't picking up. Scalbert has some excellent data, there might be a correlation but a correlation isn't proof. It just shows a relationship.

the ECU is always relearning, that's why when you want to get a dyno done on your car, drive it hard before right before you get it done and you'll see some better results. or so i think.
