Vector Intake?
 

I bought my car used a few months ago and there's an aftermarket intake installed, its labeled with a red "Vector" logo. I've looked everywhere but i cant find a single post about it.

I'm planning to buy a G3 intake/test pipes and then get an uprev tune (already have an invidia cbe), i just want to know if anyone has heard of this product. It seems like its probably a cheap Intake, but im curious.

Thanks!

can you take pictures of it? is it long tube or short ram?

My money says it's eBay garbage. There's a lot of knockoff crap on there. If it's a short ram, I'd go buy a set of stock airboxes until you buy the Stillen CAI. Short rams do nothing for your car but feed it hot air.

I've got some stock airboxes that could use a home...

Don't have the snorkel part of them tho, I'm sure someone else could supply those.

Get in line. I was easing into whoring out my stock airboxes. :rofl2:

I was giving mine away, no one took them in the day that I had to give them away... So I left them in a parking garage, lol

I would have taken them off your hands if I knew you were giving them away.

I wanted to experiment with my short rams with the air box but I didn't want to cut up my only stock part.

It was a few months ago, and it wasn't worth shipping them to CA from Houston.

Thanks for the responses guys! After further investigation, they're actually "Spectre" intakes. Its a sri. If i were to add k&n cones would that equate similar results as MAF tubes+k&n cones?

Isn't Spectre the brand that's sold at Autozone? A SRI intake will be worse than stock. Get some OEM airboxes, maf tubes and K&N drop-ins, and youll have 90% of the power of a CAI.

Yeah, OP, I think someone eBayed the intakes then went to VatoZone and bought "better" filters

....well....at least it had a cool name.

Those look like Takata SRI actually.

Even if its a Takata SRI I'm assuming i'm better off with MAF Tubes + K&N filter. Thoughts?

Haha, probably. I'm about to purchase the MAF tubes and K&N filters, i just need to find OEM airboxes. Might as well do the modshack fang diy as well.

Thanks again for the help guys.

Yeah, any open SRI is a poor design, I actually proved the Takata lost power especially as the intake temp increases.
I would say if you are not going for a good solid CAI then the OEM boxes plus modshack tubes are a good upgrade.
