Intakes for a Whipple

I know whipple highly recommends keeping the factory airbox and thta's what I've done. I've seen a few of you have put on different intakes. Are any recommened and has anyone done a before/after pull? Figure if I do the IAT relocation it's a good time to chacnge the airbox.

I ordered the Roto-Fab for my set-up. I think RF and ADM are the only two CAI's that fit the Whipple. Has far as before and after...

The C.A.I does fit with the Whipple. Just needs to be modified a little.
I have the Black C.A.I. with my Whipple.

The ADM CAI was installed on the ADM project car with a Whipple and made 795 rwhp and 755 tq. It looks factory and blends into the underhood look perfectly. Good Luck.

The Roto-fab intake has a very large filter which is extremely important to maximize performance with a supercharger. When it comes to supercharged applications, comparisons of intakes on a stock vehicle are not an accurate way to judge performance. The Roto-fab intake is very popular with the Maggie crowd due to its superior performance when air demands are higher. Tuners typically tell us they see gains of 35+ HP over the stock intake! Although we have less feedback with the Whipple in particular, they are very similar set-ups with very similar air demands.

Out of curiosity is the elbow diameter larger then your standard intake also?
