how much hp do you get after installing a injen cold air intake...i need to know before i install it and see if it really worth the money...so if anyone did a dyno on it after they install it plz let me know.. thank you and happy holidays !!!

 

after putting in the "Z" tube and K&N, butt dyno says Meh.... So I find it hard to believe that ANY CAI will make a NOTICEABLE difference. It just sounds cool...

 

Don't have your hopes too high for performance gains. Maybe at most you MIGHT get 5 whp. Since our cars are so highly tuned, simple "bolt-ons" don't contribute much. Its mostly there for the looks and sound.

 

Not many bro, but that's because the VQ is so highly tuned from the factory, it's hard to extract any more ponies.
I expect you'll net a few hp from the intake.

Keep in mind our intake is already about the best panel intake you can get

 

Not to be a bubble burster or anything.....

But how much HP were you expecting to get from an intake that would make it worth it?

You might get like 4 or 5 WHP out of it if you're lucky... or if you get the wrong kind of intake, you could lose power due to sucking in hot engine bay air.

I highly recommend the Z-Tube and K&N or Amsoil drop-in filters. You might gain a few HP from them, but you will gain a lot of economy. Most people gain 1.8 to 2.2 MPG across the board from those 2 mods... and combined, they only cost like 110 bucks. Your car will also sound a lot cooler when you tach it up beyond 3300 RPM's.

 

I have the Injen CAI. My car doesn't feel any faster. However, it sounds A LOT meaner and gets better gas mileage now. It's worth the money for the sound alone, I feel.

 

I got 17hp with Cats, plenum and intake with ztube

 

plenum makes huge dif IMO.
you are looking about 250 dollars (just for intake)...
even tho it gives you the most hp compare to other intakes according to proofs, etc...i wouldnt count on it.

 

you wont feel a difference.........jst hear it

 

Yeah save your money-- buy a few mods together--

 

The car will sound deeper and you'll sometimes here the intake when accelerating, but as for hp gains..... maybe about 5-8.

 

Thank You fellas i have been busy lately so havent been on..i put in the injen cold air intakes already but its really true dont notice, mayb a little tiny diffrence but it really sound better...i might add a z tube later on. thx anywayz oh btw what kind of mods would u guy suggest to put on and could gain some hp.

 

Turbocharger or supercharger.

 

This is the hook!
