Bonnevilles are not even on the list, GP'* are, they have different intakes tho...

For 15 bux, I'll salute the BS flag :?

Doesn't look right.

And that dyno sheet doesn't look right either. It shows the Honda having 200ftlbs torque!

at the top of the dyno, it says 96EX, so i assume thatw as the vehicle. its prolly trbd, allthough that torque is high for a hunda.

back to that "supercharger..." it'* just another useless tornado intake insert. whoa, that looks like i said tomato, but it is really TORNADO

It'* a restriction for the intake. We've discussed this before. The natural velocity of the air in the intake is faster than the stupid fan can spin. It adds turbulence and restriction.

Spend the money on octane booster.
