What did you do with your Z today

Dembflyr · 08-01-2011, 10:16 PM

Gave her a wash then burned some gas running errands.

Still haven't gotten tired of hearing the BOV's.

Don't think I ever will.

The question remains to be asked though Lunaz: did you QD your mower after kenchaning it 'round the yard?

kenchan · 08-01-2011, 10:23 PM

haha, i remember cleaning my pop's honda mower when it was brand new.

here's a sample of kenchan's garage at night...

My guess is your friend was referring to a short ram-air intake, which keeps the filters up in the engine bay as opposed to over the front bumper. Historically a number of the cold air intakes in the past caused the vehicles that they were installed upon to suffer from hydro lock once the intake was submerged in deep water or succumbed to a large volume of water from...say...a large puddle that the driver powered through. This does not happen (that I've heard) with the Stillen Gen 3 design because it sits so high.

Anyways, good luck with your decision. Hopefully this was helpful.

A cold air intake IMOP is just for looks do some intake tubes and K&N drop ins and you'll get as much HP. I'll be doing it after my first oil change.

If I already have CBE and HFC the HPS with K&N won't need a tune? Since most people recommend a tune with CBE HFC and G3's...

Or no since the MAF sensor isn't changing location.

Most people overestimate the need for a tune. The g3s lean you out a bit, but plenty of people run them with no issues.
The biggest thing to pay attention to is how your car is running. It may be worth doing a dyno run with a/f reading ($50-80) just to check, but post-Maf tubes shouldn't make much of a difference.
