stupid intake

[daltah]

do intakes really add any hp power or is it just a waste of money and if it does add hp how much?(regular intake not cold air)

 

[Dericsh]

dont know abou tthat regular intake but the cold air made a big difference in mine...

CAI will make a difference in the butt dyno. You're not going to be like DAMN! my 140 hp car now has 200, but you'll feel it.

but what about short ram intake

You will feel some improvment. I did, but maybe that is because i only have one clamp on so there is a 1 " gap around it.

Cars that I have driven with a Cold air intake always have better noticable high end power. You should feel better acceleration at 70 mph and above speeds. Will it give you noticeable low end power from 0-45 mph.................. I doubt you notice any difference. It will help slightly in fuel enconomy and it does make your engine bay look cool :laugh:

Seriously to get the most out of it you need the whole basic package. The Air intake, Headers, custom piping 2.5 inch replacing factoring exhaust piping and freer flowing cat-back exhaust. Just can't really get around doing this.

If you want a CHEAPEE INTAKE anyway.....................go to
www.stylinconcepts.com and type in your year car and look under the results for intakes and you will find one for $15.00 and one for $30.00 that is a REACTIVE brand.

They make your car sound nice...

do the heat shields help? and with the cai do the bypass valves make you lose air flow and hp or not?
