hey guys im curious as to whether the BOMZ intake is any good....i found one for $40 ...is it worth it...what kind of sound will it produce and what kinda power will it produce as well?

 

i have a bomz hybrid intake, i bought it off eBay.

im happy with it, its paired with a really big K&N i bought from Bryan at Berk Technologies for 30 bucks shipped (great deal there, i reccomend getting one from him).

here are my thoughts about it:

1.) filter sucked.. replaced with the k&n
2.) its really loud at WOT, awesomely loud
3.) power production is minimal, but a performance increase if any would be the exact same as with something much more expensive.
4.) be ready to drill your own holes to bolt the 3" MAF adapter plate onto your MAF to fit the cone filter. I had to, it was unexpected and annoying but for 25 bucks shipped for the bomz kit, i wasn't too mad.

hope this helps!

 

wait so what was wrong with the ffilter...and u said its awesomely loud, imeaning like it sounded nice n deep?...and how did the holes not match? isnt it supposed to fit the 4th gen?

 

ok #1 the filter was just paper and IMO wasn't quality and i didn't trust it actually filtering out harsh stuff.

it is really loud, with a deep sound, it sounds like any hybrid intake with a k&n would sound like, it just happens to be 140 bucks less

the MAF adapter came with no holes drilled in it. Perhaps you should ask the vendor before you buy it if it comes with holes drilled for you. It wasn't that big of a deal, just marked some holes and drilled four 3/8" holes in the adapter.

hope this helps.

i'll take pics for ya...

 

here: i "replaced" all of the blue crap that came with it, i just wanted the midpipe pretty much. i think im gonna get some black injen rubber piping to replace my ghetto plastic wrapped bomz stuff

 

zazon,
How do I contact Bryan to get the K&N filter? That's a pretty good deal you got

 

i had both bomz CAI and short ram with real K&N filter, but now i have JWT filter. see my homepage for detail on page 2.

 

check in the group deals forum, its there.. i don't wanna post his e-mail on the forum for the spambots to nab

 

alright thanks alot!!
