To the best of my knowledge, no one has dyno'ed just the Bored TB.
On Bradley's Elantra, with a BTB and BIM, it showed 3.5 HP and 3.2 Torque to the wheels. However, that was with a filter strapped to the MAF, not a CAI. I would expect slightly higher numbers out of a CAI equipped car, but not more than 5 and 5.

So guessing I will get the btb and I have a KORE cai intake I will probably see about 3 and 3? Now what about throttle response will I still bo down when starting in first or will that go away, and will the car have much more pepe and snap when I hit the throttle? Sorry for all the questions but I would like to now what to expect instead of expecting to much and getting dissapointed. Thanks again

You should feel much better throttle response, and much better passing power without downshifing.
It really FEELS like it makes more of a difference, but the dyno doesn't lie.
The only thing I can think of, is that there are gains, but they are not "peak" gains. So in other words, they could add say 10 Ft. Lbs (just an example) at 3000 rpm, but only add 3 ft. lbs at the torque peak, so we think it only adds 3 Ft Lbs...
I'll have to try to overlay the stock dyno and the BTB/BIM dyno to see if that is true.
