AS I BELIEVE, THE FRANKENCAR INTAKE IS THE LOUDEST INTAKE I'VE EVER HEARD FOR THE 5TH GEN. MAXIMA, ME HAVE THE STILLEN POPCHARGER, AS U KNOW, U HAVE TO HIT THE GAS HARD FOR LETTING IT "MOAN"....SOUNDS GREAT..BUT, IT'S NOT LOUD ..BRING IT UP GUYS, TO SEE WHO HAS THE LOUDEST INTAKE

 

yes right now it's the loudest intake available. emax just added my piping to his stillen intake and loves if your interested. even the guys at the dyno shop and they see all kinds of car said it was damn loud.

 

hey steve, how's the stage 3 comin' along? have you tested the max in the stage 3 pic at www.frankencar.com yet? i'm lookin' forward to getting your stage 4 whenever it's ready

 

Sorry but the CAI is the loudest intake period.

 

mine's damn close too...Stillen+custom intake plenum...this thing really opens up after 3,500 rpm...

 

Thats right, cuz you've heard every intake ever made for the 5th gen. Oh wait..

 

Yep, except Frankens, but all the intakes in the past have been quieter than the CAI.... CAI resonates in the fender which makes it alot louder.

 

u haven't heard mine either..

 

I have had a pop and now have a CAI, and can tell you the CAI blows the pop away. The pop has a moan but the CAI has a dragon like wahhhhhhhhhh.

Too bad I can't hear it anymore over my exhaust

 

i had a pop and a CAI on my 4th gen and the franken intake is much louder, even emax agrees.

 

My opinion is that its louder because it removes the middle section. Am I correct?

 

yup yup

 

I know I keep bugging you but are the middle section for the 2k ready yet?

 

just about, i will start taking payments this week and hopefully ship friday

 

What color are you offering initially and how much shipped for just the middle section? Give me this info and I will place a order tomorrow afternoon

 

email me at steve@frankencar.com and i will email you back all that.

 

SO STEVE ....DOES YOUR INTAKE "MOAN" IN NORMAL DRIVING?? OR U STILL HAVE TO HIT THE GAS HARD?? BECAUSE IN YOUR CLIP, OF COURSE I COULD TELL YOU WERE SLAPPING THE GAS, THAT MADE THE INTAKE LOUD LIKE THE POPCHARGERS, BUT, DOES YOUR INTAKE MAKE "A LITTLE BIT" OF SOUND IN NORMAL DRIVING?? LIKE RPM UNDER 3??

 

hi steve, dont know u remember me or not, i am the one that wants to buy ur intake tube itself, i had the jwt popcharger, so did u figure out that if the jwt filter fits the frankencar intake tube?? i have a 2k2 model....

 

yes i found out they do fit. email me at steve@frankencar.com and FIONA it doesn't moan under 3k, you can hear a slight hint of the intake if you have the windows down but not much.

 

i got a 2k SE, and ive had a universal AEM filter on it at first, and it was comparable to my friend who had teh stillen setup. i then got a CAI, and that was MUCH louder than either of them, right now im running the CAI without the extension, and i can say that its much louder than the CAI at about 5000rpm but thats in teh car, from outside i think the CAI is louder, especially below 5k rpms i thnk the CAI is loudest. i havent heard the franken intake so i cant comment on that but from what ive heard......the PRCAI was loudest from outside but was louder above 5000rpm without the extension. i think the PRCAI without the extension is pretty close to the frankencar intake. Without the extension its louder inside the cabin definitely, probably bc the filter is in the engine bay. for lower RPM growl i think the cold air extension wins hands down.

 

Frenken car intake looks great and solid results on dyno..

just remember people tho...louder doesn't always mean ur getting more power..

 

That thing is loud most def.I listened or rather heard it on a 2k2 6spd and a 3.5Altima.The jury is still out on the CAI.

 

That is the most confusing run-on sentence post that I've read in months. It looks like you say the same thing three times!
Summary
below 5000rpm --------------- full PRCAI
outside car above 5000rpm --- full PRCAI
inside car above 5000rpm ---- PRCAI w/out extension (just upper tube)

 

except with mine and how much do you want for your rims and tires and what does the tread look like and total tire/rims combo weight

 

PR CAI is the loudest I've heard, even over the CAI without the extension piece.

 

 

Big fat X.

 

Maybe 5thgenmaximas went down for a sec, but I see it now.

 

0-150?

 

There is a video of this??? Too funny man.

 

I'm with Max2000jp, How much - What Color - and When? Hit me up and I would be happy to buy one off you. The sooner, the better.

 

If your planning on getting a full exhaust be prepared to lose the intake sound.

 

for 2k and 2k1 it's 145 plus 10 shipping and hopefully this week. i think i have the flu so i've been laying low this week. but i hope to get them to the powdercoaters tomorrow or wednesday then ship ship ship. blue or silver BTW

 

yup i wouldn't even argue, i would have the car off, keys in my hands hanging out the door.

 

No joke, man...That wouldn't be pretty at all...

 

if i had handcuff's i would cuff myself for him.

 

Haha!

Yeah, I think you would make his day...

 

maybe he'd laugh it off and let you go

 

That would be nice...How come I don't ever get the "nice" cops? Of course, I haven't had a ticket in over a year now (knock knock)...
