i'll try to dig up some pics. it looks a lil ghetto, but hey, it gets the job done!dustang50 said:Do you have pics of this? Sounds interesting...
I got my FIPK II off eBay used for $50 to my door. Anything more than that & it would've been a waste of $$$. The biggest gain was how it looks under the hood, though!
Mel96GT said:I like my K&N FIPK. Makes a nice whooshing sound and it gave me a nice SOTP gain. I originally installed the drop in K&N filter and felt nothing. I then installed the FIPK and noticed a nice low-end gain with it. Just my $.02, YMMV.
if anything, they just take away the low end.Stang|ess said:I always thought intakes take away low end, but give it back up top
DerekStangGT said:true that. i paid $75 shipped for my FIPK II used. i did it so i could spiff up my engine bay and Finally be able to pop my hood at shows. no real noticeable gains. i actually felt a bigger SOTP gain from my custom ram air setup, which consists of a dryer hose from the bottom of the front bumper that runs up through the fender, and straight into the filter. better top end pull

Got any pics of your setup?hotmustang331 said:Hey Derek, did you fab one simular to mine? And check your filter every 3K, mine is BLACK ONLY where the ram air blows on the filter LOL. I can pull the JLT RAI and bump the filter on the porch and leave a pile of bugs/dirt. 95% comes from the area the ram air blows on haha....and I too noticed a nice gain in 3rd+ gear.
Thread starter, go to www.jlttruecoldair.com and get either the JLT CAI, or the one I have, the JLT RAI. With the RAI you can easily create a ram air device that helps alot....its just like pulling the headlight at the track. Should be worth around 1MPH in the 1/4.
Definitely keep your BBK and put em with the flows first like you said. I can't decide if I like the H pipe setup or mine better.GT JAY said:I'm about to add a little more power to my Pony and I did a search on here and read a few mixed reviews about the C&L MAF's. Some guys said they were good, others said they were junk,made out of poor quality materials and a waste of money.
My plan was to buy the C&L 85MM MAF W/CAI inlet pipe kit and keep the 85mm MAF in the box til next Spring and then install it along a C&L upper intake and Accufab 75mm TB and X-Cal2 or DiabloSport Pedator!
My other option was to buy a K&N FIPK. I've read and heard good things about them from guys at work who have them on their trucks.
What should I do?
C&L OR K&N FIPK???????
OMT, before someone says it, cause I know someone is going to, I'm also going to be installing a Flowmaster American Thunder II Cat-Back along with the CAI in the next week or 2.
No headers just yet, $ is kind of tight right now, and I'm still not sure if I'm going to go LT,Mids, or Shorties and I'm not sure if I'm going to keep my BBK o/r H or go with a MAC Pro-Chamber.I'll see how the Cat-Back sounds with the BBK H 1st. I already know that if I don't like it, I loved the way yours sounds Mossberg!

I think I may order the H pipe section for my Prochamber and swap them whenever I feel the need to.
As far as the CAI. I just did the K&N drop in and I may remove the silencer. I will be getting my car to a dyno day soon to check my A/F and may make some slight adjustments to my XCal2 tune. The tune that Tim supplied is already awesome though.
I'm in between cities right now but I'll try to give you a call soon. I get to Atlanta tomorrow. I'm posting at work in Cleveland right now.
