which intake is the best for high end power? would a CAI be better than a short ram? and which brand of intake have u guys used and can give me some insight on... good or bad?

 

short ram intake would be the best for top end.

CAI would be best for low to midrange power

 

and which intake would u suggest?

 

Well when you are driving normally, your "usually" driving in low/mid range power. I'm purchasing the frakencar intake w/ APEX'i filter.

 

 

I had the Injen CAI and I took it off because it was robbing me of high end power...it was good till about 30, then it struggled and just seemed to make more noise than actually go fast. At least that's been my experience.

 

I have a stillen filter with a frankencar midpipe and i love it!!!

 

with the setup i have( like frankencar) its exactly the opposite(when its hot out) no power in the low end at all(especially with some people in the car) and then some power after 4krpm. but when its cold out, the car is simply faster.

 

Ghetto

Air

Box

'nuff said.

 

 

ghetto air box? really?... is that when u just make a hole in ur air box? hrm.... interesting...

 

Stillen Hi-Flo intake!

 

 

Howcome the Frankencar was never compared with the other intakes in the FAQ section? How does it stack up? It seems that there is no consensus on the board about the type of intake to use.

 

Use the search function. Dyno's have proven that the Frankencar (WAI) yields better gains over CAI's throughout, but the most gains at top end. There's a pretty lenghty thread out there that discusses the warm air/cold air comparisons, and the tests to argue the WAI success.

Look at the threads on both pages of the results, lots of info.
