how does the Short Ram Air Intake improves performace on your car and can u tell the difference in acceleraion from 0 to 60

 

I do not know,but by itself,don't expect what the maker claims.I am guessing a few horsepower,you wont even feel that.

 

Most of the time, it will only give you about 3-5hp...if even. If the intake is not designed with the stock MAF sensor flow in mind, you will lose power, the car will not run correctly, and you will get a check engine light. When I had an intake on my car, it ran like crap. I can honestly say I lost about 50ft/lbs torque. I mean it seriously felt slower than a civic lol. Anyways, just be careful of the brand you choose.

 

In my opinion,the best thing to do to a car when seeking power without going into the motor is adding a supercharger.Even a very mild 5 pounds of boost will give most what they want.It will probably add a real 100 horsepower to the wheels.You can't miss power like that and the best thing is that your car will idle like a kitten,virtually stock.

 

As of right now, there is only one 2006 GS300 aftermarket intake:

From hearing others, they are satisfied with this intake. A majority of them installed it for the sound rather than HP. I'll be receiving the intake this week so stay tuned for another installation guide...that's right - Installation Guide #3!

 

Maybe SRT will come out with an intake if they haven't already.. That intake combined with custom wiring to the ECU should make a difference..

 

Dude, don't even worry about the intake. You've got to just go straight to the vinyl stickers, THAT'S where the power's at!
