Takeda Intake Installed!

TBSS2008 · 08-07-2009, 09:43 AM

I have been running the AFE Pro Dry filter on my Trail Blazer SS for about 20,000 miles now, just cleaned the filter last month. I used the water hose and sprayed from inside out, it came 100% clean and completely dried within an hour no chemicals needed just water. The filter does a real good job keeping particles out of the engine. The outside of the filter was fifthly but inside had no debris in it nor did the pipe to the throttle body.

I also install the Takeda Intake on my 370z and I love it. Sounds great, looks great, and pulls harder.

By looking at your grass you do not get much rain there, but do those filters get wet when you drive in the rain?

no, not unless the front end becomes submerged in water as in this photo

The Mach 1 could take that.

the engine bay gets very hot i wouldnt think this intake would provide any gains with the hood closed... but who knows. why would takeda not opt to put covers over the intakes atleast like stillen?

Heat certainly is an important element but tube diameter and air velocity are important as well.

I am leaning towards Injen, but would be curious to see what gains this offers when hood is closed!!

Dyno is scheduled for today at 3PM central time, hood will be closed and again on the same Dyno Dynamics from the same shop. Might not be able to post of actual sheets until tonight but will try to get the numbers online so people can at least know the gains (if any).
