Ok lets hear your responses to this intake setup and what you think?

I cant tell if its a cheapo or actually worth my time and $$$??

It's not bad, but the JLT and C&L intakes are better IMO

thanks guys.. i thought the same

I actually looked at that before I got my JLT. BUt, it doesn't make anymore power and costs more. IT does look cool though.

i have it... no complaints here

They had the right idea...but the way they went about it is no good. I mean the way the hood shuts right over it covering pretty much ANY chance of a ram air effect. Ill keep my JLT and pop my headlight out when i get to the track.

also theirs has that plastic lining on the bottom keeping air from the bottom from getting in AND the air filter has no opening in the front...just the sides.

Ram air really isn't a good idea on these cars anyway. These cars are too sensitive to tuning issues. How do you tune for ram air on a chasis dyno? On the last generation of EEC it was one thing, but I think with this one the gains are nominal at best.

i dont think a little extra air is going to throw off the MAF or tuning...but im not an expert. anyone got any imput about this?

The new processors are soo sensitive to anything.

A little extra air absolutely throws off the maf and tuning - that is why almost all of the intakes require a new tune.

 

[SVTsupremecy]

ya but once its tuned for more air...why would a little more air from a ram air effect mess it up? shouldnt the MAF better compensate for the increase in air

 

[RodeoFlyer]

that's the problem - the maf has only a small window of adjustment. at speed you can run into a lean condition in a hurry.
