    I have a Parker Funnel web which is rated for 3500-8500rpm. Im running 6500rpm, is my intake hurting HP numbers? Or does boost change the way way a intake would be rated?

    PEACE

    CFM flow would increase slightly from the higher velocity of the flow. Big change would be the charge would be much more dense per cfm of air. (Think more marbles in the same sized bag. Naturally Aspirated 10 marbles, Boosted maybe 25 marbles. The bag might be able to hold 30 marbles. same VOLUME in the bag in both cases. More marbles, (More dense air therefore more oxygen to be able to add fuel with).

    Manifold is the bag.
