Anyone dyno'd their TL-S stock intake vs CAI?

I have money to spare and buy an cai, but a friend of mine actually told me I'd lose low end torque and I should just remove the resonator box?

Is there a chart I can look at so I can understand better what I'm losing vs gaining?

Any slight performance upgrade is welcome


FYI: this is not a flame thread lmao, this is not a "should i get it or na" thread. I just need some insight

You wouldn't gain anything that cannot be attributed to dyno inconsistencies.

Insights.....with 10+ years of information out there. OP again do a quick search and you will learn that about our car having a sort of CAI, there performance pros and cons of the aftermarket CAI, pricing, installation, etc.

I did a 10 min interval dyno test of stock vs aem v2. Just search and you will find it and btw there's no loss of torque by doing this

Gotta' love the misinformed who insist that "bolt ons make you lose low end torque" or "bolt-ons just shift the power band higher".
