Hopefully you're doing this project for the fun of it because the amount of weight being removed between the one being made and the AFE unit is negligible enough to have no affect on handling and it's not going to change the power to weigh ratio enough to affect acceleration.
true, my car is only marginally faster than an unmodified F, but weight loss also saves gas and improve handling slightly and just make the car more enjoyable to drive.

Just purchased IS F Short Ram Intake AFE/Takeda
I will let you guys know my 2 cents regarding the Intake. It's out of stock, but they should have mine built by Wednesday or delivery. Should get it in about 10 days. I will be calling my local dyno and see what the cost would be to run the test with and without. Also, may you tube before and after.
They did give me a dyno per their specs. See attachment.

It should be off per stock specs 333 of those horses and 318 lb-ft of torque
I have asked for clarification. The numbers for stock should be around 333 of those horses and 318 lb-ft of torque or even 358 rwhp and 338 rwtq which I found on the web. I will update when I get more info from AFE.

Yes, if that is on an ISF and its a before and after then that would be good graph to compare before and after showing there is a gain throughout the power band. But take into account this probably only represents a cold engine on early start-up as I'm sure they are going to game their product to show the greatest gains. I would suspect, real world driving where the temps are higher with a closed hood and less airflow would show less gains.

I missed out on the $1,299.00 special for the JoeZ exhaust a few months back, because I did not yet have my ISF.
