Where did I say that?? If you'd read my first post again, I specifically stated that "This does not mean you won't GET to top speed faster, its just once you get there it will be the same as before." You WILL have more HP/TQ, and WILL accelerate faster.
BUT!- If you were able to hit the rev limiter in 5th gear BEFORE the additions of a pipe and filter, you will not have gained top speed.
Lets say that before the pipe/filter, you could top out in 5th gear in 25 secs. (Not a true number, just an example). Now after the addition of a pipe/filter, lets say you can top out in 5th in 20 secs. Now by looking at this example, it is easy to see that you HAVE gained HP/TQ and acceleration due to the sheer fact that you can now reach your top MPH FASTER than before. HOWEVER...when you do infact reach this top speed, both setups (stock & modified) will be going the same speed, only one is way ahead of the other by now...
Get it?

are you saying that with a yoshimura pipe and K&N filter i will not accelerate faster, or have more torqe/hp?

If more power is made throughout the RPM range then there will be a M.P.H. gain.
