You may pick up a 5 - 8 more up top. The extent to which that is worth it to you is something you'll have to mull over...

Anyway, grab a few beers and skim through this thread for lots and lots...

To be fair, I only have clear evidence of the first two claims; the third is admittedly unconfirmed, to the best of my knowledge.

Moreover, it is indeed possible to pick up gains from a higher...

Budget + Ease of installation for decent gains: Cobb (or similar) smooth tubes plus K&N (or other high flow) panel filter.

Money to burn + unconcerned with periodic removing of the front bumper to...

I want to see something cool built that offers bang for the buck so everybody wins.



Their set up isn't bad, but it's not clear how well the heat...

Goal is to achieve all of things while keeping costs at or below Stillen G3's, but we'll have to wait and see.

These guys seem to know their onions on fluid dynamics and make beautiful CNC stuff...

BTW: Check out the R&D thread on the new intake design -- elliptical velocity stack within airbox/resonance chamber.

Very, very promising design! Not just tube + filter -- development is underway!

Thanks, but I think I'll pass :tiphat:

I don't want to have to build the vents and ductwork, so if I experiment with another intake it will be the G3's.

Also, at the moment I'm shopping around...

Both the OEM airboxes and the G3's take in air from the same place -- in front of the radiator. There's ducting to the OEM airbox, so it is just as much a "cold air intake".

Fang vents on the OEM...

That's in the ball park for the tubes + high flow panel filters. I was just skeptical of the claimed difference for the G3's.

I'm less skeptical because I've recently found better evidence that...

Bang for the buck, ease of installation = high flow panel filters + smooth intake tubes (cost is < $210)

Money to burn, better gains, but a bit more work to install = G3's (ideally found on sale,...

Now THAT is a good deal.

For that price, even if it makes the same power or only a smidge more, but causes no driveability issues and sounds great, then WIN!



Without tuning? High fuel trims...

K&N drop ins and HPS tubes.

I've yet to see a back to back dyno where any of the SRI's or CAI's net better gains than the drop ins + tubes, and in any case even if the gain is 3-5 more whp, that...
