the reduction of pressure drop and air flow change are the same

The idea is to make the entire intake system as free-flowing as a velocity stack.

The section he is referencing is part 5 when he modifies the intake to further eliminate

negative boost. It is not relevant to this discussion, because I was simply using part 4 as the example of what is going on.

Basically, he eliminates just about all the negative boost in part 5, but the ECU does not take advantage. That is not relevant to our discussion, and THAT is what I was saying.

Any chance we could get objective (not butt dyno) evidence of improvements?

I like the ideas of mods that are less likely to blow the warranty. Cooler intercoolers, more airflow, open exhaust, etc. Be nice if someone had some scientific data.
