My first mod

I just installed my first performance mod yesterday.
Thanks to RandyBMC's how to, my 15% Alta pulley was installed without any problems, even though I have no mechanical skills. Furthermore, I installed a K&N Typhoon CAI.
Does anyone know how much HP gain I have received?
Drove around for a few hours after installation, and I couldn't stop laughing and smiling :smile: .

If you put the car on a dynomometer, you will not likely see the benefit of the CAI.

I have to disagree. The Alta CAI regularly nets 8-12 hp.....I don't know about the K&N

however, mods do not add up linearly. 15 - pulley...... 10 hp intake does not get 25 hp
