yes, you are correct; these companies install dual cones and dyno them with the hood open or engine cold, or both, and then post awesome hp gains. they do sound great and they produce a lot of power until your hood is closed and your car reaches its normal operating temp. I am hoping Dinan will come out with their cold air intake and larger oil cooler for my wife's e89 - they claim they are working on it. That would be really nice plus some Brembo brakes will probably be the last mods, although I am closely eying the ADV1 10.1 wheels - gorgeous and aggressive.
