L3arning Neutral Newbie January 2, 2009 Share January 2, 2009 Out of curiosity, I vaguely remember coming across a site that said that a drop-in air filter adds about 13 bhp. Any comments from the experts? :) I apologise if my information is inaccurate, but i seriously do not think any simple single modification will boost a car's horsepower by much. It's more a combination of enhancements that would better utilize a car's potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
