How many people have both installed?


I know Silvaccordex01 has them and needed to shave
a little bit of comptech's cai tube. Anyone else have to do this?
Also anybody do a dyno?

Here's silva's thread

 

You might need to take about 3/4 inch off of the tube. Remeber the spacer will shift your throttle body over an inch. So to make sure any brackets line up correctly, you will need to take about that much off of any intake you buy. The comptech might actually be the easiest one to modify, as its a multiple piece intake anyways.

 

what about your 4" intake? do you think you will make pieces that will fit the spacer or make it easier to fit at least ?

 

Cutting it down isn't hard at all and only takes a couple mins. I'm sellin' my spacers brand new if your interested with P2R thermal gaskets...

I installed both and I didn't have to cut anything. The comptech tubing compressed because of the rubber couplings. It was a tight fit but its do-able.

 

When we release the 4" intake, it is going to be made to work with our Spacer. Meaning it will fit best with a spacer, and if you dont have a spacer, you will need 1 to make it fit correctly.

 

Any idea when the 4" will be available and how much?

 

Mind taking a pic? I just want to see how much the vacuum tubes are being stretched, etc.

 

I can't mention price. I will post a picture of a completed version of the intake within the next day or two.

 

will they be CL-P compatible?

 

Now THERES a businessman lol

 

Well I just installed the p2r power package. It took longer than I thought because I had to run to the store twice, once for throttle body cleaner and once to get longer tubes. Before anyone does this install, I suggest getting like 2 bottle of tb cleaner, my intake manifold was nasty. The EGR port had alot of crud in it and the tb needed some cleaning also. Secondly once the spacer has been installed the, 2 of the existing coolant and air tubes become really short. I bough additional tubing from the local auto store, the 5/16" diameter was a perfect match. Also, I did trim the comptech tube just a bit, it is still a tight fit, but its fine with me.

As for the gains, throttle response has gotten much better, probably because of the cleaning and the spacer. The car really roars, it maybe in my head but the intake has a more defined growl to it. Others feel free to chime in.
