so i took off my stillen gen 1, and put my stock intake system back.

obviously the growl is gone, but seems to be smoother shifts... idk probably the sound that im used too.

is it me or does it rev up faster with my stock stuff?

ne ways im waiting to get my Gen 3, sold my gen 1.

 

ha i thought the same thing... even feels faster. let me know how the gen 3 is i have a gen 2 but im scooping a 2010 6mt sedan tomorow and was thinking of swapping it for a 3

 

LOL guys, didn't you know, that every aftermarket intake will change the AFR so the car will loose torque at 2000-4000 RPM and will gain hp at 5000+ RPM. So, if you drive at 5000+ RPM all day long - aftermarket intakes are for you! And if you don't and drive it sometimes at mid RPM's - stock intake is better.

p.s. source is myg37.com, tons of such posts there...
p.p.s. aftermarket tune can change it (uprev, cobb's, etc.), so you won't loose torque at mid rpm's.

 

Good choice on the gen3. It has a more refined purrrr sound compared to raucous shorty intakes--very fitting for a luxo sedan. I love mine.

 

did u get any noticeable gain in hp?

i felt like the short ram robbed hp.


side note: DC Sports had an exhaust for my previous civic that robbed hp.
the dyno sheet they provided proved it too... crazy

^ Check this out. Dyno numbers on the Stillen Gen 3 from one of the guys on my37.com. According to the dynochart, the gains are pretty ridiculous for just an intake.

 

Post some PICS, Please!?

 

I have the Stillen Gen 3 Ultra Long tube intakes on my 07x and I couldn't agree more with Harp00n. These puppys don't really kick in till 4k rpm. Love them between 4-6k but i'm rarely in that range. I do eventually plan on a tune to get better lower end response.
