About 1 to 3 bhp mate.It's not performance enhancing so shouldn't really affect the insurance as the car will be of a simular power.

It's entirely up to you to be honest.You wouldn't be lying if you told them it dosen't affect my cars performance?.It's just an alternative cold air setup.
I would just explain that to them.

Personally I would just say it doesn't enhance performance. It's a silly grey area, so you may as well save a bit of cost

Tell them you don't know, as you don't. Unless you RR'ed it before and after.
