Cold Air Induction Kits

[Dave-T]

What are you guys using and what gains are you seeing in terms of HP on a stock motor. Has anyone used Paul's Hyperformance's kit?

[03MERCMARAUDER]

I am using the JLT CAI kit and it seems to have woken the car up quite a bit. Not to sure abiut HP gains cause I havnt had a chance to put it on the dyno

I would have been useing a PHP kit but cant seem to get one anymore. So I went with a JLT when they had the deal running on them. So I am gonna make my own box like the PHP one. PHP one looks the best

[SID210SA]

I am also running a JLT and looks and sounds great....have not been dyno'd but have felt a little improvment.

Do a search. DR did a dyno before/after with the PHP airbox install. I think it was 5-10 hp gain. I have a PHP airbox in my back room waiting for me to install it. I think they were made by Paul's in small batches for Dennis, and when they were sold out, they were gone.

[Motorhead350]

I heard the K&N air charger gains like 18hp at the wheels. All I have is the filter and I noticed a small difference, but I don't think most would.

K&N
Slight fuel mileage gain and noticeable perf gain at WOT..
did not Dyno but happy with results 10-15hp would be a good
assumption..CAI's Thumbs up!!
Get kit with breather tube for PCV to maintain emissions
systems..:beer:

Installed my Paul's High Performance CAI kit this past weekend. Seat of pants meter says it adds some juice at heavy to wide open throttle. Temp was around 85 degrees a the time I was testing. Increases the "suck monster" sound under heavy throttle and maybe exhaust sound is a little louder. My exhaust is stock except for Magnaflows.

I have seen a Stock Marauder (Krytin) dynoed and then My co-workers Marauder with just the PHP box installed and it put down about 13 RWHP and 16 RWTQ over the stock Marauder.
I have the PHP box and Im very happy with the looks and the performance of it.

I have the PHP box and Im very happy with the looks and the performance of it.Me, too... :up:

[bigslim]

Mine was the first N/A Marauder that Lidio did with a K&N. The gain was 7hp over stock. With my superchager the gain was 22hp.

Did you retune for the PHP?

:D

[Dragcity]

Any deals going on with the JLT? I am thinking of taking the plunge on this one, for the Summer anyway.

I would love to do Headers next year, but too much fabrication. Is there anything that just replaces the exhaust manifold and bolts right up to the existing pipes.

Breathe in - Breathe out !

I'm happy with my JLT, it's hard to beat the price compared to the K&N. It's probably adding a few HP now that I'm S/C'ed, once I dyno tune I think it'll net me more than if I didn't have it.

N/A I think it did a bit, but honestly I didn't "feel" all that much. But it's hard to "feel" 5hp.

The sound on my N/A Marauder couldn't have been beat though. It really made it sound mean under load on high throttle, about mid in the rpm range it gave the sweetest sound!

Now I don't hear that as much with the blower. :)

[jstevens]

I went with K & N. Lidio said no retune necessary.

Love the sound and SOTP improvement.

[thePunisher]

i will have my JLT kit for sale in a few weeks if anyone is interested. going to a supercharger so i wont need it anymore.....

Which, by the way, is why I orderd one last week!
Will have to re-dyno after the JLT and exhaust mods!

[Dragcity]

Ordered Mine this evening. What the heel, you only live once.

A retune should be done with a supercharged car though. As I have said before it added 22hp to my car after the blower. Also, it makes the blower scream even louder. :D

I thought that Dennis had convinced PHP to make another run of CAIs a few months ago???:dunno:

[ckadiddle]

Quite possibly true. What I meant to say is that like some other things they are produced in small batches for Dennis and when he sells all he has on hand they are unavailable again for a while.

[duhtroll]

I won't have a dyno on mine for some time, but I'm getting a retune for sure.
