This has probably been asked somewhere, but i cant find it.


I was wondering how much more power i could expect with a short ram air intake?

particularly that one.

thanks in advance.

 

it says there that it increases 5 HP / 7 lb ft torque


But i don't know.
def. better flow, and a basic upgrade.

 

Don't worry about the intake, worry about the filter that you're going to use. and yes, it's been asked about 342904823 times

 

ya, type of cone filter you use is very important, ill be buying a cheap/ebay sri and then buying an apexi universal cone filter after read this air filter shootout...

"ebay" tubing and a k&n filter will do just fine.


get the k&n instead. it costs less and filters almost as well. just don't wash it or oil it. blow it off every now and then but that's it.

 

alright thanks guys, and sorry about this whole post already existing thing

 

true i have seen the K&N for about $40 shipped, I did find the Apexi for $55 plus shipping ($12 to ship to my house in Phoenix, AZ) here is the link

and i race competitively in autox, so if i can get better filtration and 1 more hp than the guy next to me for only $30, then ill take it
