DCI Dyno Testing w/ JB4
Hey guys,
Here are some dyno tests on an otherwise stock car running 93+ octane comparing the stock airbox to the DCI on map 1, map 2, and then with meth enabled on map 3. As you can see the higher the boost levels and the higher the RPM the more gains the DCI offers. Mike |

HP is derived from tq, so if the tq goes down, the HP at that same rom will to down. If you look at the above, there is no low-end power loss, thus there is no tq loss according to his test.

Awww Mike,
Come on now! Where is the torque curve or the boost levels? EDIT: I keep forgetting the old saying: "You buy horsepower, but your DRIVE torque!"

There is something else missing from this picture apart from the troque curves: mike is comparing stock airbox with dci. Well of course we will see a hp gain at the top end. The dci filters to indeed allow for more airflow compared to the paper filter in the stock airbox. Noone is denying that!
Mike, put a quality drop in filter in the airbox and compare again. This time post boost and torque curves too. Enough sales pitching!

IMO the best comparo to do would be runs down the quarter mile. Take a tuned x35i and make 3 passes with stock air box and make 3 passes with a DCI and average the times. I magine the result will be that it really doesnt make a difference and the times will be within a couple thousands either way.

Then go drive a Honda. Those engines have one of the best flowing heads available on a passenger vehicle.
