Sorry for the late reply. It's been a busy week plus been working on some artwork for a new label.

Thanks Murat.

" Congrats! But you do realize that the extra HP can only be realized at high rpms, right?"

Merci, you are right. the 11 HP is at peak perforamance. I guess the title should have read "adding upto 11 hp."

Thanks Scott.

"I usualy put a bottle of Optimum spray wax in the tank for more HP."

Ron, I think I saw that on the back label. lol

"Funny.....I use it in my hair"

Anthony, you probably buy the stuff by gallons! It should protect your hair for up to 5 months depending on how often you wash it. lol

"After reading on some of the truck forums I seen where some people did have a problem running the K&N type filters and having MAF problems"

ML-53, very good point. I had read about K&N filters causing MAF sensor to go bad becasue of the additives/impurities they have in their fluid. The system I got is from Advanced Flow Engineering which has no MAF issues (Toyota Racing Division did a thorough testing from what I read on their website). They also offer combination of fluid filteration and microfiber which is called Pro-Guard 7 for maximum filteration and air flow. The problem with polyurethane foam is once it traps dirt/particulates, it can not be removed. But it is definitely better than paper.
