Cold air intake kit - YES or NO

[j.fro]

The fact that the intake alone isn't a big gain is not the reason to avoid the mod. Friend, intakes are gateway mods. They are the first step down a long road of addiction. That tiny taste of forbidden power will only lead to an insatiable thirst for more. Are you willing to risk your family, your soul, and your credit score for lies supported only by the butt Dyno???

My $.02, yes the stock filter assembly is cold air, but it's restrictive, that's why I run an EVO. Do your homework on your stock set-up. Once you see all the turns and twists you'll also notice that at 6,000 rpm's your engine's basically breathing through a straw. I've posted in the past that if you followed an air molecule, it would take like five 90 degree turns before it gets to the MAF. As far as oils from the filter burning out your MAF...I run K&N's and an Outerware on everything I have. Properly serviced filters are perfectly fine, those that soak their filters in oil will reap the rewards.

With my EVO, if I look into the drivers side intake grill I can see my filter. It's a straight shot and my engine breaths easy.

Good luck on your decision.

It's like back surgery... less than 50% of patients report improvement after the procedure. Choose wisely.

Hi my name is Mark and I am a power addict. My butt dyno says it is worth it but it DOES LEAD to more $$$ mods and more FUN - surprised no one mentioned that!

Stock or 987 period. Cone filter fact - once a tiny bit dirty will flow less than a stock filter.
