any one got sound clips of the "ebay" intakes?

 

sound the same as frankencar/pr cai

 

If someone can tell me the best way to record a sound clip i'll do it.

 

i use my digi camera and record a video. thats the best/easiest way to get sound on the comp.

and also, i wouldnt waste your money on a cheap ebay intake. i bought one and it was so loud, and i think it decreased my power so i put the stock box back on. just my opinion, but you should save for cold air instead!

 

get a CAI on ebay...BOMZ worked for me.

 

theres just such a big gap between intakes.. some are so expensive, and some are just so cheap.. i really want to hear the difference.

 

Sound isn't everything in an intake, you also want to look at the performance aspect of it. An intake may be really loud, while it loses power.

 

Got pics? Did yours come with a cutting template to cut out the hole??? Mine will be here tomorrow!

I would be careful of what you get from ebay, especially car parts. I know a lot of people have the Bomz intake that you get from ebay and it is fine...but the quality probably isn't as good as Place Racing, etc. Just my opinion.

 

I"m gonna have to go with ben. I have an ebay intake on right now. They are pretty decent but you have to watch out with the product that they ship to you. Some of the parts aren't up to par with standards of say frankencar or injen. For example, I had to replace the intake cone filter that I got with my CAI from ebay. The one that came with the CAI had a whole in it after a week of use.
Those intakes that are more expensive are products that were researched and produced with high quality materials. Others are just imatations. If i were you I would just get any ebay intake (CAI) and just replace the filter with a K&N. Just my 2 cents.

 

no difference really except the sticker on it that makes it worth more, they are all about the same. just get a better fillter.

 

whats a less loud filter, i was thinkin apexi or k&n...i have a frankencar mid pipe with like an autozone cone on it and its a lil to loud some times plus its just crap...any suggestions

 

i have a video of it with my muffler and cai bomz, give me some email addy's or a way to host it

 

im with takentomax, ebay CAI with K + N filter

 

hahah any of you that complain about your intake being to loud, i will buy your mid pipe off of ya!!!!

 

All intakes are pretty much the same. I don't think you will be able to feel the extra .23534 hp that the PRCAI gives you through research over the the BomZ on eBay. It's the same with FSTBs, the only reason to pay the insane amount for the Stillen is the name and the quality, but it does the same job as any generic strut brace.

Like takentomax said just replace the generic filter they give you with a K&N, that's what I did.

 

The noise is from the midpipe...you replaced the stock restrictive parts that were used and researched by Nissan to let the engine operate as quiet as possible with a straight pipe. The filter really has nothing to do with it.

 

just put my ebay intake on.........sounds as mean as any other intake will.....and for me that's all it comes down too...i'm not trying to squeeze every millisecond of performance possible out of my car........especially for 200 bucks +

 

yea exacly that's y ebay is da shiznit. imma get some of thoes nismo seats from ebay, they are like 350 and they are preaty sicc.
