The Pilot's stock air intake is an excellent piece of engineering, as has already been suggested. There is no way in #ell that Honda would let a $25 piece of molded plastic (the intake hose and air box) hold back the performance of a sophisticated and precision manufactured piece of equipment like the 3.5L V-6 engine.
Any dyno charts to back this up? Any facts?

Financial perspective is the only one that counts? If so, performance is secondary to financial perspective. Financial perspective (cost) could hold back performance. Every car has compromises.
