IMO gen 3 or bust, short rams could effectively lower your HP due to heat soak. And drop ins really wont do much for you other than increase the life of your air filter.

Agreed, servicing the filters requires you to remove the bumper. However i doubt you do that much more than once a year?

Something to think about I guess...if there are real power gains I'd definitely consider this to be my first mod. How much do these intakes sell for?

^ 500 new from Stillen, used around 300. The thing about the power gains with these intakes is its all up top. If you rarely wrap out your RPM's WOT through the gears, this may not be the upgrade for you! But bang for you buck, Gen 3s or HFC/test pipes is the way to go for your first mod.

Do the stillen G3 intakes come etched with the Stillen logo on them or is that a sticker...I want to get this intake but I hate all the branding on it

I want to thank Ak for an awesome DiY, and Josh at Stillen for a fast delivery and great customer service.
I just installed mine and I'm really Happy with the results. |
