Hey guys what do you guys think about installing a g5cr cold air intake for v6? Do you guys see any gains/differences?

Looks nice, but 20 HP? Never seen anything like that just from a CAI.

They are not the Greatest and no chance they are adding 20hp. look through these threads to find better ones.

I think there's at least one person on this forum who uses the V6 G5CR intake and has commented on it. I believe the company that actually makes them is MMR (Modular Mustang Racing) based out of Ventura County, California (right down the road from here). Some pretty fast built Mustangs in this area come outta that shop, and they have a number of YouTube videos that show off their work.

With that being said, their V6 Camaro intake looks to be lackluster. The intake, at least the one that I saw, hangs freely in the engine bay and physically has to rest on something else for support. In addition, the intake has a back-bend in it that points the intake filter towards the open area of the engine bay on the driver's side (right next to the engine). It just doesn't seem like it would generate the kind of numbers they claim; and, there's been no independent testing to date (that I've seen).

I, personally, wouldn't use it; but, that's just my opinion based on the research I did when I was looking for an intake. Feel free to do your own research and formulate your own opinions!

Best of luck!

EDIT: Looks like they changed the G5CR intake to a solid tube since the last time I looked at them. At one point in time, part of the intake tube looked like a bendy straw.

Looks more like a HOT air intake

ya it looks like it would suck all the hot air from the manifolds. To be honest it looks like what people around here fab up from some parts the find at Autozone for a quick 20 intake for there civics.

Hmm modular mustang racing? I am thinking it is a conspiracy to make the camaro look bad. Lol JK

Their stage 2 intake isn't bad looking but id love to see some dyno results from it if they are claiming 20 hp. I remember seeing their intake a long time ago but just came across the stage 2 and it struck my curiousity...
