Attn. all n00bs asking about "best" intake

As mentioned thousands of times here there really isn't one generally speaking so please quit asking the same question over and over again. Watch this video carefully a couple of times for proof. Notice they put the new system in a sealed box, not out in the open engine bay.

Don't do it for power, do it for sound. That is about all you can actually get form intakes IMO.

For the noobs - technically, you don't ever lose or gain any power with intakes, you really just shift the power band around so you have high end rather than low or mid. If any intakes do make any real power, it's usually very negligible. There are some motors or there that can benefit greatly from an intake mod, but most of the cars we care to mod will have been engineered well enough that an intake won't do much.

TBH the 3.5" intakes actually gain HP over stock z-tubes and CAI that are 3"
