05 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins Air Intake Systems
#20
One of the diesel mags did just what you are asking, dyno tested different intakes on a stock truck, none of them made any more HP than the stock intake did. That may change with power adders, but stock engine the intakes are a complete waste of money-from a HP gain standpoint anyway.

Of course, anytime you can enhance airflow through the intake or exhaust tracts - air filter to exhaust tip - the area under the HP & torque curves will increase.
Max HP on the dyno doesn't always translate to best streetable power.

At lower rpm it seems like my turbo spools easier. Maybe its easier to get air and faster than the stock air intake. At higher rpm with a stock engine maybe there is no diff.
