and its also different because it runs out in 10 seconds or so, so its not really giving you an accurate measure of your cars capabilties in real driving terms, the performance an air filter will make will give gains wherever your driving.

I mean are you really ploughing your money into the car just so you can get a nice figure on a printed slip for 12 seconds worth of driving? because thats all the performance gains NOS will give you, wouldnt you rather spend more money and get useable power for whenever, not just when you press a button and hang on for 10 seconds or so?

so the 10 seconds it is on don't count as real driving then I can see your point of view however your arguement is flawed as its more of an opinion than an arguement.
going down a quarter of a mile strip in my opinion isn't real driving but then again no-one is claiming it is.
