    I think that's exactly why one was the torque monster and the other was the hp king. It was the N75 valves. Peter has the H valve which is supposed to peak early and taper off quick. That would explain why he had crazy torque. But, Kor has the J valve which peaks later and sustains longer into the higher rpms. That is why he has less peak torque but crazy hp. The valves peak differently.

    It also tells me that the CAI is not that important in the grand sceme of things. Although it probably does help.

    Just me blabbing

      Also that fan was pretty weak so I think that sock airbox or CAI you were still sucking in the same air since you werent moving

        Neil, I think you're exactly right. The N75 is the major factor, and from my own gut feeling I also believe that the "J" will have higher horsepower while the "H" will always have higher maximum torque. The "H" spikes to something like 20psi, I never see anything over 17-18 with my "J".

            Back on-topic:

            They say that adding this"



            Equals this:



            If you add up the cost of a TIP and a CAI from C1 its probably about the same as getting this system.

              I'll pass and purchase the Samco hose kits seperately.

                Hmmm interesting..... I think the Samco would prolly be a better bet though. At least Samco has been a proven performance mod.
                Although after time i'm sure this Blue Rhino product will gain in popularity
