(a) Make it easier to change the air filter
(b) Clean up the engine compartment.

Thanks for the Dyno results.
With the CGA the approx 8 HP increase and 8 Tlbs of torque is a decent gain
Interesting that the Airaid actually lost HP and torque
Is there any reason to wait on the CGA? My guess is after this test a back order situation will occur!
I can see why Mike is carrying this setup. Now to talk to my Chevy service manager to see if it voids the warrantee .........
One last question, was the test done with the stock muffler or a different one?
Mike , can I post your dyno chart here, or would that break some unspoken protocol? I'll take it down if you wish. The pic is from Mike's site.

i would like to see a dyno with the hood closed on both because that is the way it would run in real life.
the AirAid would have more direct air from the grill and hood closed and the CGS would have less with the hood closed
i think the results would be more even at least
till then, i will wait

I'm sure they're being Photochopped right now, considering the colored areas next to the graph subjects. What the dyno charts will contain is anyone's guess...
