Ever so slight, the AEM and 77series were neck and neck essentially.
How to shop for an intake

K&N makes a good product - if you have one now an it's working for you, stick with it. You more than likely wont see any further gains from switching to an AEM. The only thing I don't like about the K&N setup is the oiled filter. Back when I was younger and didn't know any better, I used to add waaaay to much oil to them, and on several vehicles I saw a dramatic loss of gas mileage. Presumably due to fouling of the MAF sensor. Obviously thats not the fault of the system itself, but left a bad taste in my mouth for oiled filter setups.
I like dry filters because of the simplicity - they are pretty much idiot proof. Unless you put them back on soaking wet after cleaning them, there really isn't anything to screw up.

Here are the results of the test-
From top to bottom on the horsepower curve on the graph is:

How about the closed box volant optional power tube that also gets more air through the tow hook opening?

if im not mistaken, the outlaw is very very very similar to the Volant setup, so the numbers would most likely be similar... don't quote me on that though

So basically the stock intake with a K&N filter got one of the top HP gains on the dyno?
What is the stock HP on the SS?
I'm confused....

Basically the test said AEM was best, then the K&N, then the stock box with K&N filter. The stock HP doesn't matter, especially since they all had gains.
