Did I miss something? FCI intake vs Fuelatv

I keep reading everywhere how the FCI intake seems to be the best intake. Has someone done some DYNO testing that I missed? I am very happy with the FUELATV intake on my KFX.

Garrett at FCI did post some dyno sheets somewhere in here and the FCI did put out some better numbers than the FUELATV. I can't recall how much better but what ever it was wasn't enough to get me to switch. Not yet anyway.

fci is almost 2 hp over the fuel. Dont get me wrong both are great intakes but fci is the way to go. I run a trp intake and its right next to fci and i can tell a night and day difference from fuel to trp. Fuel is just a ltr tube with a dasa adaptor. you can even make this your self for half the price.. If you ever seen a fci its just huge!. I think garret did have the dynos of the 2. and it was 2hp gain.

We keep hearing that testing was done between the two...... yet, there are still no dyno graphs that have been posted.....

We have a new dyno near us and will be testing soon by a third party...

Did you guys see Creamer pull the hole shot this past weekend with my intake on it. Call hetric, Ct, factory Kawi, Sparks, they all have results.

give rich hetrick a call for sure. He was testing our intake for a wile and said nothing compares to the FCI. i think the real hp numbers where 1.7 something more hp on the FCI. Thats why factory kawi and team hetrick are running FCI. I wish i had a picture to compare Fuel vs FCI. Fuel is a nice intake though and he is a nice guy. for 2hp more for about the same price. i mean come on now
