Thought Short ram...

i thought it was supposed to give u low and mid end power in ur rpm range but it seems like i'm gettin it inthe high end when vtec kicks in?...
and the only sound i hear pretty much from the sri is when im flooring it...did i install it right, 'cause i did it myself pretty much without instructions...

yeap in the high end

i have a injen short ram and i love it and stand by injen 100%

what brand did you get, if its a off brand you know why you dont get much power, cause no R&D went into it but you should get liek 3hp to 5

i love the soudn of the short ram

What a bunch of shit, there's no way you'd get 7-10 horse from a fucking intake on a v6, this guy has a neverending supply of shit responses what a douche... someone should make a smiley for that

Also I know that TPR did a test and it was the best short ram out. I know cause they sent this poster with the dyno sheet at the bottom and a list of what the others made and weapon r was the best

I stand corrected, the AC autotechnic made the most gain. at 144.7hp but that was at the peak which is 7300rpms. The weaponr r made the most low and mid gain power. Sorry my bad

It depends on why you got. I have a V6 auto, and with the auto I need all the low and mid hp gain I can get. Oh and the weapon r did produce 7 and 10hp gains at different rpms. The base hp at 6000rpms was 107.3 and the weapon r gave it 114.7hp, and at 7000rpms the base made 128.5hp and w/ the weapon r it got 138.8hp.
