Corksport 2012 Mazda3 Skyacriv SRI?

Anybody bought this SRI for the Skyactiv? HP and Torque graph is for the CX5 not MAZDAS3 Skyactiv! I'd like to improve low speed torque but am not sure if this would help.

Thanks

No you won't get any more low end torque: The problem with this is HEAT SOAK. Hot air from rad will be pushed over to the air filter giving you poor bottom, mid range performance. For optimal performance you should somehow make something to seal the air filter from the rest of the engine bay (all the way up to hood). I'm quite sure DYNO was done with hood open to give these readings. It's different in the real driving world!
