Janus' impression was different; after fitting the Injen intake he said it took the car a while to adjust (or was it wmj in brissy who also has the Injen?)

I'd definitely like to do a comparison, but if there is any lag in the engine getting used to the stock intake again, thus taking a while to get back up to stock output, then it will obviously show an unfair performance increase for the intake.

I hope it actually does make a difference though, as it would explain why he gets so much closer to the manufacturer reported time than I did.
