and before you even start, i know it would be smarter to drop a klze in there.

on your worklog site there, the intake you've done is "true" cold air, correct?muttpower wrote:Depends on the set up you use...meaning if your "cold air intake" is sucking up hot engine bay air, then you wont really gain anything but a nice sound when you blip the throttle. Now If you do a decent custom "true cold air intake", ie. filter located in driver side fender area, etc, than your gains could be anywhere from 2 to 5 hp. The main benifit of the true cold air intake is that when the motor gets to operating temp, the stock filter location sucks up hot air causing a loss in power, where as the cold air intake sucks up cooler outside air. Don't believe the hype about intakes netting 15 horsepower gains. Maybe on a turboed ze with built internals, but not a stock K8.
once again, ive asked a question before searching in any way.muttpower wrote:Yes, I fabricated my intake myself, and no, I didn't have to cut a hole. There is ample space in the area between the driver side fender and coolant resevoir. It's not too hard to fab up a custom intake. If I'm not mistaken, there's a faq/diy topic on this.
Jesse... Just curious to know which color would net the greatest increase in power?fowljesse wrote:In a silver '94 GS, with good compression, you'll get 1¼HP with a good CAI. WIth true ram air like mine, you'll get 2HP.
