FPIK intake
 
has anyone ever heard of an FPIK intake setup? i have never heard of it until recently and i was wondering if anybody knew anything about it..and i was told that it goes for around $250. is that true?

"FIPK" actually

Its K&N's brand of CAI (i think) and yes ... they run a lot of $ but you can get a CAI way cheaper then that.

i have one on my ZR2. highly recommended.

yeah its K&N's fancy name for a cold air induction, fuel injection performance kit, or something like that. ive got one on my car but i got it used for 150 less than list price, there are plenty of different brands out there, some cheaper. just stay away from the G2 setup if youve got a 4th gen. a cai kit is definitely something that belongs on your car. dont buy the cheapies on ebay, they wont fit, the filters are crap and you really dont want a "chrome" intake pipe under your hood soaking up heat, kinda defeats the purpose.

I Bought the K&N FIPK (fuel inection performance kit) And I can say that I am very happy with it but yes it is expensive (I believe it was closer to 300.00 at auto-zone) I highly reccomend it if its not too far out of your price range. If not the whisperlid Is a great start for easy HP boost!

for an lt1 FIPK all the way

SLP intake is cheaper... and some would argue better

Brando56894 01-29-2006 03:04 PM

especially if you make it yourself :D about $30 + man power or about $90-$150 depending on where you buy it from, but with that setup you also should buy the whisperlid, which brings you upto about the same price

would be nice to know what year/make/model car hes talking about...its got 94' in his screenname...he might not be talking about a car needing a lid.

I agree

foff667 01-29-2006 04:15 PM

well by his profile it looks like a 94' camaro...doesnt say Z28 or not but they used the same intakes as far as I can remember...i would personally say go with SLP...its lightly cheaper & IMHO looks better.

kaoskreater94 01-29-2006 05:36 PM

well i saw the SLP intake for my car, i like the setup, that it has two filters that merge into one collector, now as for the whisperlid, what exactly is that? i have never heard of it.

foff667 01-29-2006 05:37 PM

whisperlid is for 98+ fbodies...doesnt concern the older cars

:werd:

the 98 and up cars have air box lids. the factory ones have a bunch of ribs in them and they dont flow all that well, so a bunch of aftermarket companies make ones that are smooth underneath and flow a lot better.
