Looking through their recent mailer and on page 30 there is a Cold Air Upgrade. Claims to increase hp/torque/sound for about $225.00 and installs in 20 minutes .
Anyone have experience with this product?

Thanks

 

Which company did the mailer come from and what cold air product is it? K&N, Fabspeed, etc.

 

I don't think it really adds the hp that they claim, but it does add a great sound.

 

Here's the link and catalog description, would like to hear from someone who has this unit.
Thanks

Yes, That is just like a fabspeed type system. I had the Fabspeed in my car. Small power gain but deeper sound. Go with a K&N cold air intake system. Google it, Should be no more the $299. Way better product and power gain. Also check out this thread:

Order from AutoZone $219 for K&N.

 

How do you get it for that price? I found it there for $322

Sounds great at 4k+RPM, not much pick up.

 

Waste of money! Get a real intake or just plug tour existing connecting pipe for similar results. It does sound great though, but nothing compared to the evo intake.

 

you can get the same thing from vertex for less than $100

They have K&N plus a cold air intake. I would look at what they have to offer as well.

 

I did the orange plug mod, so I'm guessing this is about the same?

 

Looked at the Vertex web site and essentially the same item by Schnell was $109.00.

Alos noted they have Schnell performance mufflers for $699.00, any experiences with these?
