CSF has proven this fact: no hard data, but their claim of increased HP sells units. The fact that they're more concerned with sales over proven results however speaks volumes.
Until IAT temperature comparisons are made in a controlled environment, proving a statistically significant efficacy of the claims, I wouldn't even consider putting it on my vehicle.

FWIW BMS
posted a back to back test of their Phoenix S55 IC doing 1/2 mile runs. It's not fully apples to apples as the testing was done on different days and slightly different tuning/weather but gives you an idea.
