I really like the looks of the performance machine fast air intake. Checking it out on their website and they claim a 10.21 HP increase over stock. Is that a stretch, or could it be fact? Does anyone here have any real world experience with this air cleaner? How does everyone feel about performance machine products in general. Hoping for some feedback and thanks in advance!

 

I would say that's a huuuuge stretch for an 883

 

I would want to see a dyno report on a bone stock 883 first...

 

Is it an intake or air cleaner.
If air cleaner, I could see about any aftermarket free flowing air cleaner making 10hp w/tune & free flowing exhaust.

There's the link. It sure is pretty!

 

Maybe they mean 10.21% more HP. Even then it would need pipes and it would be at WOT only, 4-5HP.

No one here other than a few run in that 5% of your riding rpm range anyway. That $500.00 wil take me a few miles down the road. Looks kool though of thats your thing.

 

I'm gettin to that spot where the only that matters on my sporty is performance!

 

You can put less than $100 into an air cleaner with equal performance & put the rest of the cash you would have in that high $ PM a/c & put the remander into other go fast stuff.

Essentially same but $300 less.

 

The gain from an a/c is gonna be similar from company to company. $450 is steep for what you get in my opinion. Money could be spent elsewhere.
