Those graphs are confusing in B & W! I do not understand how the Monster flow is supposed to be making more tourque but less HP at low RPM??? I though they were directly related.. And I do not see why a filter that flows better would result in less power down low but more at higher RPM. K&N & KKM gives gains across the rev range. I understand little about A/F regulation by EEC-V but why would the computer be able to compensate at high RPM flow rates but not low??. At face value, both filters give about same area under the curve HP & tourque values (though I would rather have the more useful high RPM power). Micah do you have the dyno showing that A/F tuning was able to compensate for low RPM tourque loss with your AFE?? In view of these dynos, I think that is important.

Offer stands to compare K&N and AFE head to head in a few months.. I want the best filter myself. laugh
