Twenty hp is more than I would have guessed.
That is actually close to the cf intake which makes twenty-six. It is definitely more durable than the cf intake.
What does it weigh?

Yea I was pretty impressed with the number. Remember this is engine HP not wheel...
I did weigh the unit at one point and I am looking for the email that I sent it in. If I cannot find it I will weigh one when I get the next batch in (Nov. 9th expected). I will also grab the shipping weight of one of them to at least get an idea (even though with packing and the box it will be more).

PS-Alex, you didn't happen to weigh one of the ones I sent ya did ya??

The 26 hp is rwhp. Depending on the usage, both products have their advantages.

I'll weigh one when I get in again but if I remember right it was about 6 pounds total if that...

6 sounds about right... I had 8 in my head for some reason, so right around there...either way its a hell of a lot lighter than the clunky stock unit Evan

So yes there's headroom....

The inner diameter on the FVD is 2.5". What's the measurement on the ScarGO CF unit?
Because this thing is flexable, does it shake around and bang off stuff?
Thanks, Mike

just a question...
since the unit is bend-able, will the wrinkles it created within the tube somehow distracts the airflow???
