another thing the eclipse's are heavy. Yeah once I get on top of my payments I want to buy the OTTP Stage 1 and there H/E. Then work on the exhaust.

I'd keep the lightweight flywheel also, thats will gain a little bit of hp cuz of the weight. I plan on getting a header back exhaust from CIA after I get the stage 1 and h/e

 

but the car as it is, is still pretty quick with the stage 2, header, and cat-back
notn to laugh at

 

he'll make more power with teh 2.5" exhaust, i bought magnaflow also, it sounds awesome!

 

Thats because you hit the m62's limits with a 2.8. I have told you this many times

No he wont... Not with a 2.8 anyway

 

dont mind tiz nube..he aint got no drivers lizcenze

 

a guy who lives not too far from me has a 2.6 i havent seen dyno results but ill ask to put this issue to bed, he has all the necessary cooling mods, if the iat2's are kept low, i dont see why it wouldnt produce more power, it certainly should produce more torque. as far as the 2.5 vs 3 inch goes, i've heard mixed opinions, but generally 2.5 is the popular choice under 300 whp, i did here from the guy that he made more power from the 2.5 than the 3 inch, anyways ill get my hands on those dyno results

 

**** or gtfo mike

 

...?

 

IM done with the subject, Get your dyno results and go from there

 

well the 3" exhaust power isnt for now its for down the road.

 

thats the only way to settle it, there are good arguments for both sides

 

You do realize there is a sticky on here just for intakes right?

 

This isn't bout intakes anymore

 

Take it from someone who has installed well over 10 intakes on other members rides. I have seen plenty of intakes and PLEASE stay away from AEM. AEM is one of the worse junk intakes I have ever seen. I have seen Injen intakes and installed those as well. Injen over AEM any day. Just ask people with AEM filters what happens if any dirt or water touches the dry flow. Its the end of the story for the filter and your MAF will act up.

With that said, I'm a big fan of Injen, or I think the other good one out there is called Rebel. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but Rebel has a real nice intake.

Give the guy a ******* break. This is a cobalt site and he is asking questions. Who cares if there is a sticky. The sticky does not cover everything and well over 90% of the people in it have not tried more then one type of intake.

 

since you have experience installing these intakes i have a few questions for you, how much power to the wheels does an injen intake add? if i were to do an airbox mod, which filter should i choose? will it yield as much power as an injen intake?

 

Yeah I'm a big fan of injen also, but i like the blue piping AEM offers. lol You call last night? How that exhaust install come out?

 

Most of this is true, but 2.6 pulley is way to small. I would never run anything under a 2.7 period. The M62 Blower is only meant to spin so fast. Anything under a 2.7 is just a waste imo. It will cause more heat then anything. People seem to really like 2.8 pulley with meth and all supporting mods like a H/E.

 

I've got the R.A.W. 3" on mine, and I love it!

 

Well, we are going to do it Thursday because of all this snow we have been getting. My brother bought a 50trim kit for his SRT-4 so we will be plenty busy working in the garage. Unlike most people here who try and give advice to others, I can honestly say I have worked with 4 different brands of intakes and installed them over the years. As for that last company I was talking about, it is not Rebel, its called Raw I think. You can always end up painting your own piping with high temp paint if you don't like the color. I think Raw offers powder coating of your choice. I have to leave for work now, but I'll talk to you later.

 

im reconsidering my options, i might just go with the basic ottp kit, should i buy their tune or should i get it street tuned to my meth kit from a tuner near by?

 

Ok man you have fun there i get to go school today. Just as boring

 

Someone that installed that many intakes should have known to put a hydroshield on the AEM dryflow. Don't let these guys fool you man the AEM is a great intake. I have it and it gave me a nice bump in power in the lower rpm range. I also have never had a problem with it to this day, because I installed a hydroshield on it. Injen does not produce the most horsepower .... that 17hp they claim is complete bullshit .... all intakes for the SS/SC produce about the same wheel horsepower (8-10 whp). Most peope will tell you injen, because thats what most people bought for there SS/SC on this forum. AEM is the underdog, because it doesnt show itself in the engine bay.

Also, I've tried the Air Box Mod w./ K&N drop in and the XTC cold air intake .... AEM has been my fav. out of the 3.

 

supernova1972 that sticky can lick my *****. They only help to a certain extent.

 

Yep a hydrohield us a must for any dryflow filter . My AEM hasn't given me any trouble with a shield on it . Without a shield your screwed thou ..... the filter acts like a tampon.

I have no problem reusing the stock piping thou, others will want to be able to show off their intake. Look at the plus's of the stock pipe ....it won't rub threw.

 

x2 ....
