Prob about 2 bhp but the prob you have is unless it's a forced air you will be putting hot air into your engine.
Hope this helps

As you've probably now learnt, enclosed induction is the way... something like Raceland or those cheaper carbon ones on ebay with free battery cover.

i have found it depends on what other engine mods you have, i have a full exhaust system and newman ph3 cams with remap. when it was on the rolling road with standard air box it produced 149bhp, i put my KN on and it increased to 160bhp.
