Depends. If the intake is the greater restriction,then you will still see
improvements.Also,the intake air is COOLER,thus more *dense* a charge for
the same VOLUME,and has more O2,allowing more fuel.
Honda Tuning Magazine got +20 HP gains on an RSX-s with each of 2 different
CAIs. On a DYNO,no exhaust mods.That disproves your statement.

True, ,to a point.....most of the time volume will depend on the combustion
chamber size......that is were the mix is so that is the most critical
element...and turbulance in for good fuel mix, ,and smooth flow out.
