Good right up/photos, thanks for sharing. Is the engine noise discernably louder at cruise or just during acceleration?

My friend has installed on his Audi Q7, it is bit throaty, the bhp increase was all a squib, he took his car and tested with the dyno, all in all the BHP increase was 11.5 against what they quoted 21.But it was loud for some days and then he got used to it.
But I do not know how if K&N quotes such figures, anf such are never acheived. They never quote which car under test condition was this acheived. I am sure it differs from various car models.
But one thing positive was he said there is 3mpg increase in mileage. He did this test over a 4 months. After his comments and Pearl Power, I have decided to take this test and see how it goes.
I have a question to Pearl....lemme know in decibel how loud is it in the cabin.
