galaxygrey13 · 08-25-2008, 05:03 PM

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 07:06 PM

you hit his pride

**0720Steve** · 08-25-2008, 08:41 PM

pride is good. i like it. i can tell it is getting flow. win win in my book. i challenge you to go spend #3.57 at home depot and tell me you don't notice a difference.

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 08:44 PM

hey steve have you started realizing a difference?

**0720Steve** · 08-25-2008, 08:44 PM

ummmm.....yes.

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 08:52 PM

really??? i want to do this again. but i hate it how during the cold seasion here the heat coming out makes my window really foggy

**0720Steve** · 08-25-2008, 08:54 PM

for 3.57 it was worth a try, and i like it. i can hear the intake more....i can tell it is getting air....throttle response a pinch better. just feels a little smoother. not sure on the temps, but i assume it is helping out a bit....and every bit helps.

but yeah, i am a little concerned about rain. i'll have to watch the weather. rained a little today but not much.

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 09:04 PM

yea there was a down poor here today.

DeePStr33tzOfTn · 08-25-2008, 09:04 PM

it rained today and i did this earlier. not too much water got in the engine.. a few drops on the sides but nothin that would cause water to get into the intake or anything

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 09:08 PM

hmmm.... idk... will see.. some crazy weather today. kept raining on and off.. got caught in the rain on campus

**0720Steve** · 08-25-2008, 09:09 PM

jackolee · 08-25-2008, 09:10 PM

**0720Steve** · 08-25-2008, 09:10 PM

i recommend it. you won't see crazy differences.....but if you know your car well and pay attention to the little things and feel slight differences you will be able to tell. it's getting some cooler air in there.

***Zeuceone*** · 08-25-2008, 09:38 PM

Lol. That's why you don't do three things at once...

**0720Steve** · 08-26-2008, 03:03 AM

yeah. i think i am going to put those plastic pieces back and see what happens.
