Part of the issue is most people who have their numbers posted are using the G3's and are 310-320 whp... no one really has (that I have seen to be fair) numbers listed quite like that with just tubes and a set of K&N drop-ins. I think that ANY intake system could work, but the SRI systems need colder air run to them... hence the reason that their numbers are low and sometimes lose power. As has been stated here many times... the OE set-up is quite good. I would love to see, and may myself get the drop ins, maf tubes and the fang vents and do a before and after. I'm looking into it and it will be rather stealth, which I also like. |

If you do get the tubes, drop ins and vents and get it dyno'd, post back, would be curious to see that...

If you want faster drag times, the G3's are going to be the way to go, as they are going to be much cooler sitting before a run and obviously will quickly come down will less speed... let alone a run going into the 103-114 mph trap speeds i've seen out of a lot of the 1/4 mile times. If one is a track driver that runs a warm up lap, there might not be as much difference as people think. That of course would be up for debate though. |

i've really been thinking of some kind of set-up where I could do an SRI type of system, but also get the colder air in.. I would use the fang vents of course, but even getting the temps down even more. A shame that using meth isn't really an option.

And again these gains are only seen with the stock ecu map. When you go to get your car tuned, that's when you see a larger improvement and also improved driveability because your ecu now knows your engine breathes easier. So that's where you get the most benefit out of it. The best way to look at it is Where do you want to be power wise, and What are you willing to spend. Don't look at it as well if I get this intake, or this intake, or that intake... Look at it as I want Max HP and I don't care about cost. Or I'm on a tight budget and peak numbers aren't the most important. Get all your mods done, then get a tune. That's where the numbers really matter, once you're done with Everything.

Op..as mentioned above... every dyno is different... order of mods will give you different results... hell, even the tuner can make more of a difference... some say the trick is air volume... some say its intake position... however, the unanimous agreement is that the air must be as cool as possible
