My car with the AFE intake pretty much made identical power to the MS intake.

Congrats on the new power. I can't wait to see what your pulleys and tune do!

You should get a hold of the digital .drf file from your dyno shops. That way you can lay out a nice graph and compare them better. It will be much more visually pleasing than scanning in a piece of paper.

If you need help setting that up, let me know

I dont feel like I can credit +12 RWHP to +6 RWTQ to just HFC and catless. So after discussing it with EAS and researching about how much the change could actually make, I make my final decision that catless could add at most 1-5 RWHP and a little bit of torque, the rest remeasured up to the intake being reinstalled more carefully (by me both times). So my conclusion is that it does make power, how much is variable between cars.

I actually have a theory that maybe going catless let the car breather easier by moving more air through the system, but thats only a though with no real evidence lol.
