Nice install!

Your post-test drive comment reminded me of this (for those of you who've not been to KaleAuto's website):

Just install a great mod like a cold air intake? Electric supercharger? Big Muffler? Magnetic fuel line ionizer? Awesome wing? Are you getting no respect from your friends for your newly found power? As we all know, these are high end and sophisticated modifications. Some may be TOO sophisticated to actually show up on a traditional dyno. So here we have: The Butt Dyno. Simply place it in the seat, and drive fast, weaving in and out of traffic. (On a race course, of course.) Now you can tell your friends with confidence "That oil-saturated air filter gave me 20 horses!"

Nice install, I hope you have a better experice with yours than mine. I had to replace my MAF after I installed a short ram air intake. What brand of filter is that by the way??

It doesn't sound too loud at all! I know someone asked this, but is the pick up that much more noticeable? How much extra HP do you think you gained?
