Factors for low end power gain/loss
Was going to post this under "Heads up"..but decided its new topic time..

The 1g intake side flows better, the 2g exhaust side flows better. Most people use 1g intake stuff, and 2g exhaust stuff. I think the best combo is a 2g head, 1g TB, 1g intake mani, 2g turbo mani.
This is where I get confused...what factors attribute to low end power gain or loss? Even a cai makes you lose low end power...but why? Cause in my head I can only see that there would be increased airflow across all rpms and therefore should be increased power across all ranges.
