Nothing else changed, so I have to assume that the 11 hp gain was strictly from the K&N cold air intake UNLESS you can come up with some other reason there was an 11 hp difference between the before and after.
Thanks for the additional info. Since you did unplug the exhaust, that 11HP gain makes perfect sense. If you would have done the K&N alone first, with no other mod I think the gain would have been insignificant. The stock SSR has a great airflow setup. (BTW...the dyno numbers you posted above, if they were max TORQUE, that would not be the same as an increase in max HP)
