Stillen Intake installed.
Well first I'd like to say this is a really nice looking intake and very well put together.. I really like it. BUT the stillen tube is useless garbag.. Its way too short and wont fit. So in the middle of the install I had to attack craigslist and find a stock intake tube.. Ended up picking up a Z tube plus stock airbox for 30 bucks.
So I installed the air box+filter+Ztube..
Overall: Feels more torquey (sp?) down low but it feels like its lacking up top passed 4K rpms (this is in comparison to the Injen short ram I had).
I still like it.. I'm sure it is way less prone to heat soak.
I also have the plenum spacer installed along with an exhaust so I couldn't hear a difference between the two intakes.
EDIT: Forgot to add that at the same time I used MAF cleaner and cleaned the MAF sensor. Then I used throttle body cleaner to clean the throttle body... MAF looked clean to me to begin with, but my throttle body had all sorts of gunk on it that I took off.. Even with that gunk all gone it still doesn't feel as powerful up top then the Injen..
Next up, using the pop charger filter with the stillen.
