Gah, finally decided to look up some intakes for the 3.0.....and since I'm a retard when it comes to the barnds, I want your opinion on some of the items.

1) BOMZ Racing Air Intake
2) Rapid Velocity performance chip
3) COSMO Racing C/A Intake

Thanks in advance for feedback =)

 

wow never heard of any of them.... I think some might have that COSMO one though.

 

what you need is a AEM. thats all you need to know

 

those brand are off ebay huh? Intake piping is intake piping, the only thing different is the filter that comes with it. unless ur talking about the AEM V2 that is totally different from all the other.

and dont buy that Rapid Velocity performance chip, its fake, there is no chip upgrade for our car.

 

i like the Injen shorty is better than the AEM.

AEM V2 > *

 

all the ones you listed are ebay intakes. they are not AEM brand or Injen or any of the high priced intakes. lots of people have those ebay intakes, from what i learned is that they get the job done and they sound great. i have an ebay intake in my car and it sounds real good but then i bought an aem intake two weeks ago just cuz the parts are of higher quality. from my experience, the ebay intake is great if you dont want to spend atleast 175 for a good intake. oh and the 98-02 accord v6 fits the 3.0 cl so go with an accord intake. 50 bucks or 200 bucks? your choice

 

did you noticed a different with the AEM over the cheap intake?

 

i actually have not recieved the intake yet.. im hoping for a difference, ill let you know when i install it. should get it in two days. im sold my ebay intake to my friend with a white 3.0.

 

^start a thread once u get in install. I dont think we ever discuss that topic on here about how name brand intake compare to ebay intake.

 

oh yea im planning on it. just waiting for the intake, plus the guys down at race line might dyno it for me so ill have some numbers

 

 

There is not really any difference between aem and an ebay intake, they're both aluminum tubes, the difference is in the filter. Trust me, I own 4 intakes

 

^thats what i was staying. well he can start a thread about how K&n filter compare to ebay.

 

K&N is one of the best u can buy

 

i know....but what kinda of performance increase would you get on the 3.0? would it be noticable?

 

I got a cosmo one. Does the job.

 

ill tell you how much gain your gonna gain between a v2 and an ebay one.
About a whopping 1-2 whole horsepower.
So lets see $150 for 5hp or $30 for 3-4...hmmmmmmmmmm

 

I got a cosmo short ram I'm tryin to sell, I went for a black cold air instead.

Oh and DO NOT get that "performance chip" they don't work.

 

and thats not even power to the wheels.

 

 

i have the COSMO racing cai and i love it. it's awesome

 

where can i get a k&N filter for my cosmo?

 

Ebay

 

how much you want for it?
got any pics?

 

PM and Pics sent

 

ahh..the age old intake fued...

ebay vs. V2..

ebay/ K&N for teh win

 

Say what you want, but the V2 is a higher quality product. They tell you that the engineering in the change of tube size in the V2 adds air flow. This certainly won't make a huge difference, but you're paying for the fact that you simply can't get that much airflow from any other intake.
VXCL seemed to think the V2 was significantly better if you check out this thread:
Aem V2 > Aem V1

 

i have the bomz one, works fine w/a k&n filter.

 

the funny thing is....i dont even have an intake



x 10

 

when i hooked up my toyota paseo (i was 18 and it was mt 1st car with a sunroof (manual) and perfect paint so don't say sh*t) there was no intake made for it. bought an intimidator filter for $20 and pvc piping from home depot. after some minor mods and i had an intake!!

 

I dont care, you drove a paseo :ghey:



just fawkin with ya.

 

How do you plan on beating Subbuzz without even an intake? Your intake had better be coming directly from some intercooler piping if you want to have a chance.

 

he's been going to church as of late.

 

don't worry about that...your suppose to be on my team ( ) unless you want to cheer for Subbuzz, then go ahead and embarrass yourself

everything is goin into the car at once and yes their will be an intake in their

 

obviously...to make sure white lighting has a nice spot up top when im done

 

i better see you on overhaulin!!

 

i wish...Chip Foose > *

but i dont need him..

 

Silver, you know I'm rooting for the Canadian driving the 2.2, but you better have some tricks up the sleave if you plan on beating the modded 3.0.

 

lets just say..that i got long sleeves

 

Its a CL not a mustang. The only thing you are gonna notice from just an intake on the cl is the sound, a little better throttle responce, and better gas mileage...
