Do cfm gains mean hp or tq increases?

CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) has to deal with Airflow, so the greater the CFM with porting and such the more air is flowing through a system.

To answer his question it is not just as simple as saying increasing CFM will give more HP or Troq there are several other things to consider.

No, it's not that easy. There's a lot more to it than just cfm.

My Envoy's been making a ridiculously loud racket from her engine bay for the past few weeks.

I checked her maintenance records today. Apparently she's still running on her factory belt. That's 10 years old.
