sorry for such a redundant question.. just dont want to waste my hard earned money on something useless, like i did for my other car.. HKS INTAKE SUCKS...

which intake for the maxi gives the most whp? price? where can i buy? this is going to be my 1st mod..... thanks for all the help, great forum

 

If you're looking for an increase in power, don't buy any intake; get a Y pipe.

im trying to avoid exhaust/pipes, (i dont want this car to be that loud), the supra/weekend car is already illegal and loud enough.. LoL

im not looking to make huge power, im very content with this car as my daily =O)

just looking for an intake.. thanks all

 

you will not see any noticeable gains from any intake... save your money

 

If you aren't looking to make huge power and you don't want loud then either keep your stock setup or you can get a K&N filter replacement. Anything other than the stock setup is going to be loud.

 

loud meaning exhaust is to much for my daily driver.. but to me, intakes are not that loud.. i was thinking K&N as well, how much do they go for? where can i buy one? thanks

 

Try Fram Airhog panel filter. K&N and fram could be found at Autozone. Drill holes into the lower portion of the airbox for maximum airflow.

 

+1 on a swiss cheesed bottom airbox.

 

would anyone have pics? so i could know how its suppose to come out... thanks , everyone has been such a big help.... cant wait to post some pics

 

you really need to read the FAQ section. you've asked about 5 questions already that coudlve been answered if you read it yourself. short asnwer is the intake wont do jack sh*t for you. and the ypipe will NOT be loud AT ALL, i had an intake on and the intake was 10 times louder than my ypipe. save your money...and read the god d*mn FAQ's in the stickies.

 

save your money... the most i'd do is throw a filter on to replace the box...

 

Y-pipe won't add much sound. I think an intake at WOT will be louder than adding a y-pipe.

 

yea the y pipe doesnt add alot of sound if you keep the stock cat back. you will hear the intake over the y pipe from bout 3500 on. and for like $160 for 15-20 whp you cant beat it. but to answer your question im pretty sure the hacked air box is in the How To's. good luck

 

get a pop charger instead

 

Intakes are a waste of money. All they do is make pretty noises.

A Y-pipe is less than $200 and adds a proven 15whp with no noise increase.

 

If you want quiet buy an underdrive pulley or a y-pipe.

intakes dont add much power, most people just have them cause the sound is awsome on a max.

 

y pipe doesn't add sound....but definetely changes it....

 

my cai intake is louder @ 3000rpm, then my y pipe and leaky loud exhaust

 

with a ypipe.. im still going to pass emissions right? and i can still stay on the stock exhaust ? i know it gets very tiring answering these noob questions, but i just dont know much about the max, as compared to an mk4.. i wanna do it right the 1st time, so i dont have to waste cash redoing a setup..

and to those that have answered... thanks for being patient, i wont forget
