You should be skeptical of those hp claims. K&N had an initial design for the RX8 that claimed about 8 hp, and when the people dynoed it, they found a loss in hp. The new design is supposed to be better, but 9 hp is still unrealistic, especially with the short ram design.

I'm going to try to use this http://www.amazon.com/TX5000-Electro.../dp/B000HUADIW and see if I'm really picking up high temps. If so I plan to build a box to try and lower the heat. I do however have the RB air ram, with the K&N intake.
