Cold Air Intake
 
Is there really any difference between the K&N intake and the SLP intake besides the look and the actual air filter? Is one really any better than the other?

the slp/gm/lingenfelter ones that are constructed of tubing have been shown to make a few more ponies that the k&n ones. less turbulance allows for a touch more flow. nothing great, but one test i found showed 3hp with the gmpp/slp one.

the normal ones with the big bulge in them open up, then have a sharp angle sticking into them and then bottleneck down again

the SLP one has two straight, mandrel bent tubes that then merge into a 3 1/2" collector


which seems better to you?

the SLP one gets HOT dude. I had it before the Ram Air setup and it just absorbed all the heat it could under the engine bay

Seriously, check this thread out - http://www.njfboa.org/forums/showthr...ghlight=intake

I duplicated the same thing for my TPI Monte Carlo SS. Works much better than the factory stuff, and is budget friendly for money misers like me!

squirell has the item number for that piece of tubing at lowes. it is in the rough electrical isle with all the prebent conduit pieces. :)
