Need last minute advice...

Should I go with the Stillen Hi-Flow Intake or not.

I heard about losing low end torque. Is that just a hoax?

Before I plunk down $$$, need some advice from all you MAX crazies...

Thanks in advance!

uhh ... no .. maximadave is wrong ..

u will lose low-end torque with the SI ...

maybe he didn't notice it if he installed his SI & Y @ the same time ...

I had my SI for about 8 months b4 I put on my y-pipe 2 weeks ago ...

u will lose low-end ... but u will fall in love with the growl of the SI ... u will also pick up some high-end torque ...

if u get the y-pipe (& some people r selling their used cattmans for $300 + or including shipping which is a great price .. search 4 it) u will regain all low-end lost ...

regardless .. get it ... the amount of low-end u lose won't make or break u ... the y-pipe will definately make u though

I have a "pre-owned" Stillen intake for sale; the intake was on the car for a day. Shoot me an email if you're interested, it's discounted of course (info@eatricezone.com)
