As they said themselves, if it is less than 10% you will not notice a difference, even if it is a loss.
In this case, if it even loses power at all, you won't notice it, but you will notice the sound :drunken:

A before and after noise/rev comparison because there is a huge difference, especially in MIVEC.

Just gunna point out in that dyno video, the vehicle they're using is Turbocharged and Intercooled. Technically, colder air will have less of an effect on a vehicle with forced induction, because the turbo itself is heating the air and the intercooler is then doing its best to cool it back down again (get the CFM up). They really should have done an NA comparo as well, just to show the difference to vehicles most P-Platers will be driving around in.
