1) The average person doesn't buy a Porsche at all.
2) Chinese headers, a fart can, and an enormous cone filter will contribute much more toward making a car loud than making it fast - there's no 1:1 correlation between dB and HP.
3) "You must realize how restricted you car is before you say how extra HP is big in their minds." Wut?

I would have thought they didn't put the K&N filters, de cat pipes, sports end cans etc etc due to emission regulations, they would have to make it legal in most countries so a minimum would be set???

The reason to go with a K&N filter isn't the magical mystery "more horsepower." It's that you can go with just one lifetime filter that you can just clean, instead of disposable filters.
