Probably not measurable by dyno since there is no ram effect during the testing. I remember the 'Cudas & Chevelles in the 70s that gave credit to the Ram Air for improved HP ratings. True, 2/10th or 3/10th of a second improvement in ET is really negligible in everyday driving however, it can make or break a dream at the track. I will be going to the track before the season closes. If I break the 15 second barrier, it would be a dream come true and I'll credit the time imrovement to this mod.
