Im being told that installing intake increases HP but lowers bottom end torque is it worth the loss of torque

Corpse · 07-29-2010, 08:26 AM

I searched caravan intake but just showed a dodge caravan intake

Sibze · 07-29-2010, 08:29 AM

haha no Caravan (Caravanshaka) is the person. He has the injen intakes however he had them powder coated and now he is selling his z.

Sibze · 07-29-2010, 08:44 AM

No problem man! He is asking $400 for them which is a really good deal. 1. they are $550 new and 2. they have been powder coated

Corpse · 07-29-2010, 08:56 AM

Ok you say they look Red i prefer red over orange money isnt the issue looks are plus is it true i lose torque when I had HP he may have whole car sold

Caravanshaka · 07-29-2010, 08:59 AM

Orange in absolute direct sunlight and under camera flash, but it's a metallic red in 90% of lighting conditions. Here is the color on a black car:

Corpse · 07-29-2010, 09:32 AM

SWEET!!! I like it will check on those with caravan but tell me do they hurt torque. And whats the deal with custom headlights if im asking to many questions im sorry but the only way to learn is to ask. Ill send you my first born

Caravanshaka · 07-29-2010, 09:36 AM

They don't really hurt torque, but they don't add a lot of power until about 6500 RPM, thats where it adds around 10ish HP.

Custom headlights are blacked out, with color matched shrouds and LED's down the landing strip.
