Stillen vs. Smoky: your take on intakes

Red370 · 03-26-2010, 10:13 PM

Heres the deal, none of us here were there, basically meaning that we all have to assume that this test is true, and the results really occurred. However, not being there and seeing independent results with SR intakes time and time again, hood open or not, they either see ZERO gains or lose power throughout the power band. People, it makes sense, look at where the G3's are located, away from the hot engine bay, directly in front of the one piece that keeps the engine cool, the radiator, i/e best possible location for cold air to come through. A filter sitting in costant heat with temps easily over 200, vs. a system that pulls in air only 8-15 degrees above ambient, im sorry but regardless of any opinions i hear about SRI's, science and proven tests show that NO SR will make good power on this car.
