need info on injen intakes
i was wondering if the injen intakes are worth the money theyre asking for them. how hard is the install, how often does it throw cels, does it give you any noticeable performance gains stuff like that thanks
i found a good deal on mine got it for 160 used but mint condition. the install isnt to bad at all. IMO best way is to take off passenger tire and pull out the plastic in there and you will be set.
as far as noticable gains. i would say no.
i dont boost as much but im told boost is measured in restriction so i would assume if im not boosting 15 psi and now only 13 that is good. better flow? so yeah.
and also ive heard with the injen you have to tune you car or else it will be a good chance it can hurt your motor.

dman1320: The Injen intake is one of the best intakes for the SS/SC. Install is a piece of cake, and if you take your time it will fit perfectly (at least mine does). I found mine on E-bay for a great price. Injen intakes now come with Amsoil EA nanofiber filters which have amazing flow and filtering abilities. As far as power gains you can expect the same from pretty much any other intake on the market (7-9whp). I have never had a CEL, but then again I'm tuned. I dont think you will have any issues though. Hope this helps.

Wellllllll, everyone has their preference when it comes to intakes. You will get many different answers, i personally think they are good and worth the money. But someone else may think that AEM or K&N etc. is better. Intakes are also probably the easiest install for your car, and performance is noticable if you know your car really well, you can mostly notice the change in the sound its deep and throaty
