Sure did. Sound is definitely "throatier"? So far so good!

Cool! Being from Indiana, I can definitely relate!

Rogey89 · 01-30-2011, 03:36 PM

COLD? We're -23 degrees here! hahaha

hmmm more I read more I like. But I too question the Janetty tests... loss of .08 HP at normal? confused????

also, cyber grey car, red jewel tintcoat engine cover. roto fab to match the red jewel tint? can you do that color??

Roto-fab 1 · 01-31-2011, 09:34 PM

Two things-
#1 There is alot of information out there from many tuners that have dyno tested our intake. I would suggest looking at all sources, not just one. If you look at Ted's test of our V8 intake you will see we had knock in higher RPMs on that run which pulls timing and therefore power.

#2 The V6 intake has a different MAF housing than the V8 which totally changes the intake. For the V6 we actually tuned our MAF housing to the engine by correcting tube entry and size until we matched the stock long term fuel trims. We mold all of our own plastic pieces in house which allows us this kind of flexibility.

Here are some pics of my V6 intake that I just received on Friday. Since the intake tract is discussed above, and I haven't seen any internal pics yet, take a look. You can see how smooth the inside of the intake tubes are. So smooth, that you can see the dust on the inside of them from me pulling the packaging apart

. I'm very happy with the quality of the product and recommend this to any V6 owner (can't comment on the V8 system, obviously). There was a fair amount of time involved with the MAF sensor area too, very smooth and well reinforced.

More. Gotta love the colour match option. The IOM is a perfect match to my car and will look factory when I can install it. The last shot is of the die-cut foam that is used to keep it all together during shipping. Everything fits snug with no rattling around, protecting that fresh paint and other parts from getting too close

I've seen a few people ask if the green filter was available but I haven't seen an answer????

Jen is out today, but we will check into it again tomorrow. The one we pictured was a sample from a company, not something we normally carry.

I just got off the phone with our supplier. We can have the green filters by next week! We've had a few people ask about them, but I think you are the first to step up and say, "I'll buy one!"
We used our sample green filter on a V6 car with a SGM air box-it looked really good! The sample was a shorter filter than the ones we ordered, but it looked great anyway.
It would be best to call in your order as we don't have this option available on our website.
