do a search.

#4 MAY give you some gains.

#1-3 add noise, but you'll likely lose whp. yes, LOSE whp

Yup, I'm loving the JoeZ intake upgrade. Simple in design but surprising an effective hp gainer (5-6rwhp).

a filter on a stick or a drop in does absolutely nothing you will feel. You'll definetly hear it. Without a hand full of other supporting mods that don't exist yet for this car, changes to the intake are nothing more than an audible placebo...

i concur. If whp is the goal, then the time and expense of changing an intake is not worth it. IMHO.

None of them give a SOTP gain. They're all a little or a lot louder.

I have Injen SR intake, HKS exhaust (not the high power one) and have dyno numbers showing a little more then 12rwhp gain......(this will probably start a hole thing again so to save the agony check out my previous post and the dyno sheets are there)
