| Posted: 3/16/06 2:38PM Post subject: Question about S/C + Intake |
|
|
| Ok guys is this is a repost im sorry but I promise I searched and didnt find anything. Ok heres my question.If I had a s/c would it be pointless to have an aftermarket intake since the air is brought in by the S/C?Or would it add even more air into the engine?Thanks for any help I can get. |

You wouldn't be able to use any of the current aftermarket intakes that I know of... I believe ZPI is working on one though...
Anyone correct me on that? |

well a friend of min ewith the S/C bought an el-cheapo SRI intake off ebay and chopped it right before the bracket it attaches with and then chop the other hose and connect it with those ric things (there real name escapes me at the moment)
he has had no problems and is running very well. hes running a SRI though. |

| ^ To MOD one, yes... but you can't buy one yet that fits. That's what ZPI is working on. |
