Dyno'ed my M3 with and without RPI Air Scoops... results:

Don't have the graphs yet, should have them on Monday but yesterday I dyno'ed my M3 with my new RPI Air Scoops, high powered fans were used and 90mph wind was directed straight into the scoops and front grills. We did a total of 5 pulls just to get consistency and I had 374hp at the wheels BEFORE the scoops and 376hp at the wheels WITH the scoops. So with 90mph of wind the scoops are good for an extra 2hp at the wheels. I don't know where the hell people are getting 14 or 15whp from with the scoops but it's a cheap mod, nice little gain, and the red scoops look awesome behind matte black grills (i'll get pics soon).

FYI, I also have an Evosport pulley, Remus Race exhaust, and BMC air filter so that explains the 376hp as opposed to baseline.
