How much HP?
 
I just bought a Cold Air Intake system and its called Number One, how much horsepower do you think it will add? I have a 1992 dx 4dr sedan 1.5L

Q: How much HP will I expect to gain from an intake?
A: From an intake alone, expect 2-4HP depending on the brand/type. AEM and other sites give dyno's that show 10 or so HP increase, but this is simply too good to be true: they most likely have OTHER mods installed when they did this dyno, thus skewing the results dramatically.

You will "feel" a difference but it isnt alot of gain... just better TB response... once you add more and build up the engine, all the parts will make eachother faster

Alright thanks I am also going to be getting an exhaust system with new manifild and header for it which should help out.

i've never heard of that brand, but like an ebay filter, the pipe should be fine - just get a quality filter on it ASAP; i'd recommend the aem dryflow

yeah, it's mediocre, it's basically a nopi brand (i think)and they sell them cheap. it's about like ebay brand items. a nice aem or k&n filter will make it better, but not needed.
