New intake on Ebay

[CosmicGrooves]

The company name is "BlingLights" ????

It was over before it began.

That is EXACTLY what I was going to post... well, the words may be different, but the topic was the same.

How's this any different than an Injen? You could put a better cone filter on and it's the same thing.

LOL ouch mike

Actually - he's not too far off with that comment - as far as performance is concerned at least. Injen only makes some noise and no performance gains over OEM with a TRD filter!

[Astro]

Injen does have BETTER performance gains than OEM w/TRD filter....That's why Injen dynoed around 10hp and TRD around 3-4hp. Think about how restrictive the stock box is, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.
You wanna race and find out???

I do not want to race you.... I do not race cars that I can not beat haha.

Maybe Gen1... but Gen 2 was not restrictive enough to see a real difference in stock airbox vs SRI. 1-2whp. That was with the Injen size and the 3.5". Only with tuning do you get a boost.

So shiny pipe or black pipe... no diff. Both BlingLights (haha) and Injen are mandrel bent so makes no diff except the filter. So unless you can spring for a cp-e, buy that ebay and get a better cone. Slap an Injen sticker on and you've saved yourself some cash.

Except the ebay intake does not have a MAF adapter unless you are a big fan of electrical tape.

[alan8888]

the electrical tape will make your intake fall off within half year

Your irony detector isn't working huh !!?!

Larry - I'm gonna have to smack you bro!!

This is a Gen 2/2.5 thread for starters... and N/A 3.3V6 will not/cannot perform any better that OEM airbox with the TRD filter and the baffle removed. ANYONE can fudge dyno numbers to their advantage. LOL!

[Astro]

Just messing around, Jeff

Has anyone ever actually dynoed them both? I know Injen did test both because June (my wife) had the K&N (which is pretty much the same as TRD) in when Paul at Injen did the dyno runs. If Paul did alter the stats, why would he only do such a small amount? We're talking about 10hp max. I would've bumped it up more if I was going to cheat. Does that mean CP-e altered their numbers too? LOL!
In actuality, it may not be that much difference on the street (I know), but on the chart it does show otherwise.

[Down2TheC]

Yeah... too late for Jeff to run them. You can't go back to the INjen when the SS box is tuned to the 3.5".

But Jeff's butt dyno told the tale.
