Cold air kit, need opinions.........

[Charlie Allen]

There are many kits out there. Many different companies. What do you have and WHY?? Anyone ever dyno their 94-95 Pony after an install with no other changes?? What are they worth in ET in the 1/4 mile?? Ready to buy but would prefer the most bang for the buck.
Thanks for the input.

get 1 from ebay. it doesnt make a difference from what brand. now my 2 cents, i felt a difference with mine. i slapped on a k&n and cleaned the maf before i installed it.

don't waste your money on it. You'll make more horsepower buying a short belt and bypassing your a/c and smog. Cold air might net you a few horsepower total, but they're more for looks than anything. If you really want one....make your own using pvc or plastic tubing of some sort, it won't absorb heat like a steel or chromed aluminum intake would, If I were you though, I'd just put a K&N in your air box and buy underdrive pulleys with the money

I bought it because it sounds cool.

On a more serious note, its worth it not for performance gain, but for looks ALONE. The stock piece looks like a turd in the engine bay. KamiKazi is correct in terms of performance, but my vote is to remove the turd.

i have a vortech cold air kit

they're all the same. get the cheapest one or make your own. not worth the extra dime for the name brand ones IMO. the only one that will really make a difference i think will be the anderson ford motorsport power pipe.
