Just installed the C&l plenum and intake pipe. Installation was pretty easy. The only "problem" I had was getting the true flow pipe to line up due to my MAC cai. Needed a little twisting and persuasion, but it went in. As far as gains, It seemed to give a little bit. Most of the gain appeared up top 3000+rpm. To be honest, I was expecting a little more, however, I'm only running a 70mm tb. So I'm prob not reaping the full benefit of the plenum.

Question: Do you guys think I will gain anything by ditching the CAI and getting a C&L mass air kit?

I installed my C&L on friday w/ stock TB, and yes it pulles very nicely 3000 above, second gear pulls much faster to redline. My Accufab TB 75mm should be in today hopefully.

I installed a C&L plenum over a month ago and noticed nothing. You guys have magic SOTP meters.

how do you guys feel about this set up? C&l Plenum, accufab 75mm tb,C&L MAF,and C&L true flow pipe connected too a k&N, How much hp you think that will give a 98 2v?

I felt a good gain wen I put on the C&L maf kit, and it complimented it nicely when I put on the C&L plenum. Now that I have a 70mm tb, the car pulls much harder and smoother from 3k - 6k. Gonna get a dyno to see what the actual gains are.

well fed ex found by house. Install of the TB took my 15 minutes very simple. throttle respone is even better now at it pulls very nicely now to redline. I think when u couple the plenum w/ a larger diameter TB is when it works best. Im happy with the results. Will get it dynoed after xmas
