I have a 96 stock automatic se and i was curious if a frankencar intake will noticeably make the car quicker. Thanks.

Yes, the car will feel quicker but louder as well.

Well I've had my Frankencar for a week or so now, and I don't feel any huge improvement. I'm sure there is some, but without a Y-pipe it seems the mod is only at 50%. Hopefullt after a Y-pipe there will be some significant power. Oh, if you buy the Frankencar, just buy the midpipe and try to get a POP charger, or something with a velocity stack, it will sound much better, without it, it just sounds like you took your filter off..........

Is the low-end still there with the frankencar midpipe??

Better or worse than stock?

Apparently it is about the same as stock, and you keep building more power progressively.

i have a 98 automagik and i notice a lovely difference. i've been torchin people since i got it. i ate an integra today. he had his intake and exhaust done and was stick. he pulls up to me at the light and starts revvin. so i floor it and the wheels peel a little, and killed him like he was standin still. i had him by a good 3 car lengths. its not a whole lot of hp gain but it really help in the low and high end with the hybrid intake......
