In order to have a performance gain, you will have to say that air flow is what is limiting the performance of the 115 hp engine in the 3500 lbs car. If that alone does not seem doubtful, you also have to be willing to say that upon removing your air filter (no restriction) briefly, and test driving, you have a performance gain. Then, let us know how the dyno numbers stack up with and without the KN. I think the performance gain will be small but definite, because your wallet will be lighter.
