Cold Air Intake Installed

[shsportsfan12]

It's about 4" in diameter. That's what she said.

I always hear 5-6

the AEM dryflow filter for that tube is $57... if a person were to buy that intake kit and then buy the AEM tube for $57... seems like they would BASICLY have an AEM brute force for under $125. now THATS a great deal...

 

[shsportsfan12]

Or just make your own for $35....now that's a great deal too...

 

[tybardy]

well you would still need to get a high flow air filter, and that fram air hog is a peice of shit... the K&N drop in is still $65

 

[shsportsfan12]

Really no need for a new one. Stock flows quite nicely. Put a few new holes in the bottom of the box to increase the amount of air it can take it...Just throwing it out there... I know you want to go aftermarket.

 

[tybardy]

i already have an airraid intake tube and K&N drop in filter... saw a lot of MPG's after that upgrade, not to mention i also have several "custom" holes drilling in the box and mounting plate... haha, so im already with ya, but the problem lies in the heat soak and the open element w/ heat shield intakes have proven themselves to perform better from what i have learned

 

[shsportsfan12]

I think you're focusing too much on this idea then. You've already seen a substantial upgrade with what you've done. You aren't going to be seeing much more. That $125 is just $75 short of a custom tune. I think you see what I'm getting at

 

[tybardy]

got a BB tune as well

really im just that guy who "WANTS" shit all the time...

 

[shsportsfan12]

Oh I'm in that boat too I am obviously just expression my own personal opinion. I think you are better off spending the dime elsewhere.

 

[tybardy]

yes, and i probably will too... i want to stack my bread for an HD hood

 

[shsportsfan12]

That would be sick...but while you're on the topic of performance, why not go with something along those lines?

 

[tybardy]

my next round of performance is going to be Long Tubes and a cam... but thats not till next Tax season....

Oh yea Seph, sorry for the thread jack man... The intake looks sweet mang

 

[Sepiroth]

lol

 

[jomulk56]

Hey Sep is that a dry filter or oiled filter? I'm thing about picking one up. Not sure if I'll order it before our meet or not though.

 

[Sepiroth]

Its a dry filter element.

I just ordered a Ebay intake kit as well. Came out to $84 with shipping/tax, I'll post pics when installed. I figure the only thing that can really be cheap about it is the filter, which can be easily swapped out for a AEM/K&N filter.

 

[wmgood64]

Thats what i use in my vehicles amsoil 0-30 signature series!!

 

[tybardy]

there are some as cheap as $60 shipped on ebay

 

[Sasquatch]

Sep, did you get some mpg numbers?


Sas, did you get the intake? I'm thinking about the same one.
