Get before and after dynos :tup:

Looks neat.

I have this on my G and sold the Gen 3 to get it .. The fitment on the Takeda is way better with no rubbing issues .. The thinking behind the one filter is more surface area .. The only thing that I did not like about the kit is the couplers .. Cheap and tear easily .. Purchased some cheap eBay 4 ply and could not be happier .. Good choice op ..

Interesting.

Dyno's from each intake??? It looks cool but idk if Im sold on the single filter unit being better than the Gen 3's dual filters.

Thanks man.... Seems like a lot of G3 users don't like the idea that something might come close to their "superior " intake. Afe makes darn good products, I don't see where this will be any different. I'm sure they have done their homework. Even the engineers here at work agree that with the large surface area and both being connected, it should make one heck of a balanced, equal pull of airflow and a lot of it.

I like the idea of anything that makes more power! If its better than the Gen 3, awesome. I just wonder about the single filter. I would love to see some test results.

I'm looking at the pic again, and I think I see a squarish cutout on the underside of the piping, near the TB. That's kinda far away from the intake point, no?

Closer to the TB might be a more practical place to measure the Air Temps for accuracy before they hit the manifold. However, there is a greater risk of heat soak that far up over the exhaust manifold.... just my :twocents:

the maf location is pretty clear in the picture, the opening is in the bottom of the pipe, similar to the IC piping from GTM kits. looks pretty good, I would be curious to see the before/after dyno.

Nick911sc 03-09-2012 03:04 PM

I remember seeing development pictures of this awhile ago. In for dyno results.

alcheng 03-09-2012 03:51 PM

Interesting design, and $400 is a killing price!

:tup:

In for pics and Dyno too.

Greater risk of heat soak???... Or do you mean actually getting the correct IAT1 temp before it enters the TB? I'm guessing our cars also have a IAT2 or downstream air sensor as well to read the manifold temp so what does it matter? And if we don't, it needs to be placed as close to the TB as possible for accuracy.

Guys there won't be a dyno before and after from me... I'm in farm country, no dyno's around here.

MattP725 03-09-2012 06:08 PM

I don't think the single filter design is an issue... as long as the filter stays clean it is always going to suck air through the membrane over trying to pull it from the competing TB. I'd be more concerned about the flex/shock of the system than anything else. That filter could take a potential beating if there isn't enough flex and it might eventually tear. I'm interested to see how this goes.

RyanR 03-12-2012 12:16 PM

Suckers are now giving 15% off stuff till Friday. They just sent me the code EMR1212T so that makes them $378.67 shipped... Dang good deal. Thinking about ordering me some Eibach sway bars for $170.
