I am going to be running a 4" intake on my setup, I got all the parts I needed in yesterday. Hux racing has had massive successes with a 4"intake over a 3" intake. So between the added performance, the enhanced/louder turbo whistle (turbo whistle is enhanced with a 4" intake due to more resonating area.....or so I have heard) , the killer look of a massive 4" intake, and Manny's awesome welding skills, how could I pass up the opportunity.
Hopefully I can get Dustin (Batman) to go to the dyno with Manny when he runs my car. I would like to see what kind of gains a 4" intake actually has over a 3"intake (if any), because Hux racing has only claimed having bigger gains, but I haven't found any back to back numbers to prove it. After a few runs with my 4" intake, I will see if Dustin will let Manny take a couple runs with his 3" intake on my car for a true back to back comparison. It would also be nice to see how similar the 2 motors (both GEN3's) are in HP and TRQ at the same boost levels. And then add in the water injection to see how those numbers change, and how AFR's will change. Should be very informative/interesting, I hope he has some free time to kill with Manny when he goes to the dyno, I KNOW he is wondering/curious as to what power he is making. --------------------

Well there's on down on my end... not sure if you wanna come down this route naa, im pretty familiar with my guy, and i like the fact of all my work being tested on the same dyno. if you do go to your local guy, be sure to bring a disk with you, and ask them to put the run files on them, its awesome to be able to go back and review each one of your runs, and overlay them ect. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
