Gains

[Eric-Blk2004]

So I am looking at possibly picking up a driveshaft, gears, and a tune.

Any thoughts on what I would be putting down in terms of numbers and drivability gains?

I have kooks already.

Not sure why I posted this here - but whatever

The driveshaft will not net any gains, per say, besides safety. The gears will help with takeoff, and reduce top end speed. The tune will really wake up the car. It will make a few adjustments to your cars computer like the shift points. Make sure you get a tune for the 4.10 gears.

Sweet maybe I can skip on the driveshaft for now

I have 4.10 and did not replace the drive shaft. A.O.K. so far....

Do you already have a cold air intake

[Eric-Blk2004]

Nah - is it worth the money? In my experience cold air intakes just like crap like dirt and stuff into the pourous filter and into the TB and such.

I have never seen a clean CAI setup - the filter is always dirt caked or char black with nasty stuff.

I would probably do a K&N drop in. Unless someone can show me otherwise with a CAI

See I had my cai installed the same time I put the 410's in so I don't really don't know how much I gained but it sounds awesome

I've never seen a Marauder CAI in such a condition.

Where does the CAI get located to? Most CAI's for imports get too low to the ground and suck up all the road waste.

My WS6 has ram air so I love that the best.

I'm with Rich, what CAI's are you looking at? The ricer ones where they stick them right on the freakin' road? In that case yes, they'll be filthy. The CAI made a little bit of a SOTP difference. Bit peppier, better throttle response, and great sound.

I'm not sure of what numbers you should expect, but in my experiance the biggest gains were in the cars throttle response and shift points

[Eric-Blk2004]

Yea I just looked at the JLT intake - nothing too crazy just looks like a filter and a heat sheild. I would consider that a Ram air as its on the same level as the engine and the air induction is coming from behind the head light.

Cold air is something lower away from the engine, either by bumper support or fog lights.

Maybe I just get the terms screwy.

[Eric-Blk2004]

I can prolly fabricate something on my own. Thats what I did with my WRX and it work fine.

At least the JLT is 100 bucks - K&N is nuts for 300+

You can find a better deal than that on a k&n fipk I think I paid 200 bucks for mine online somewhere

[Eric-Blk2004]

Yeah - in the end it will more then likely be a drop in for me. In my experience after market intakes and oem intakes with drop in filters are pretty much the same in terms of performance - the difference is just looks and sounds.
