K&N drop ins are the way to go,,,,
How did you come tO that conclusion?? There are dynos out there proving these tubes add hp...

Just bought a set of tubes/drop-in's. Supposedly are in stock, we shall see. This will be my first power mod. Not sure how much I'll get out of it, but if the but dyno is happy then I am happy. :tup:

The HP gain isn't significant enough for the butt dyno to detect (it's only ~5HP), but hey, it's cheap :tup: I'll admit that sometimes I think the throttle is a bit more responsive, and it pulls a bit more, but that could be the self-fulfilling prophecy of human nature. Please don't take this as me trying to be a douche, just trying to make your expectations more realistic and in line with the mod :tiphat:

Understood, and thanks! It's a cheap mod that doesn't make the car look like it was modded cheaply. And really 500$ for an intake system that might net another 5hp really isn't worth it for me at this time. I'd rather make my car handle and have it look legit.

My tubes came in today, going downstairs to install them now.

Will have these back in stock in the near future. The last two batches lasted about 4-5 days and we were out again.

Red__Zed 05-17-2011 09:05 PM
mine just showed up. I don't think I feel like installing them before ZdayZ though.
