Stillen air intake gen 2 vs gen 3 ??? Need help here!!
 
Hello all:tiphat::tiphat::tiphat:
I'm going to install stillen cold air intake.
Wht is different between gen 2 and 3?

I know that Gen 3 can give more power around 17.5whp
but what about Gen2

Are their any point for me to concern?
-Engine problem?
- Is it true that engine will have shorter durable?
- Any torque gain?
-Which one is better?
- Any intake can give more gain?

I drove 220-250km/h everyday to school with my friends. Really need your opinion here. Thx for reading.

Based on the reviews and info that I have done on the forum, short ram intakes such as the Stillen G2's don't give too much power/torque due to the constant heat that the filters are exposed to in the engine bay...This is the reason why I opted to purchase the Stillen G3's...They are positioned right in the front area of the front bumper to avoid hydrolock....I have yet to type up my review as I want to upload all my pics...I can tell you that the butt dyno approves and I definately feel the gains on top of the Berk CBE/HFC combo that I already had installed...

Good luck with the decision.

Despite my previous post...the following thread was the most impressive in regards to the G2 short CAI's.

Take a look at it and make your own assesment!

I think there were fitment issues with the Gen2.

Might want to check out the R2C intake if short ram.

Billion thx, but what is CBE?

Do I have to worry about dirt getting through my engine
by G3 intake???
any harm?

Or no need to worry just install G3

Hey what about the sound is the sound more aggressive than G2??

Thx again ^^

Thanks for the link.

To summarize the original question G2 vs G3.

G2
Pro: Easier install, easier maintenance
Con: lower hp

G3
Pro: More hp, air is colder
Con: Install remove front bumper, maintenance remove front bumper to clean filter.

CBE = cat back exhaust.
