i have the k&n intake type 2 and its quite noisy >6000
What intake from greddy?
is it the one that goes to the front like the AEM and Mazdaspeed?
i always thought it was just some piping that was bent by someone and they chucked an airnix greddy air filter on the end and charged about $400 for it.
My intake was $200 from the greatest shopping centre in the world (eBay)!

Its just like the AEM intake then.
They didnt rate too well and actually showed a decrease in performance?
Not sure about the technical details on this one...

Well, i would say that intake system isnt a 'bg piece of technology". In my opinion it should be able to get the coolest and the biggest amount of clean air into the intake. I have no idea if the filter is gut or not, but it is at least at the right place and it has a big diameter pipe in the shortest lenght possible to get the air in. The filter might not be as gut as K&N filters or might be 100 times better

a direct cold air feed from front of the car will improve the air flow. air intake from behind the front grille works well (a small top section of the black grille is actually blocked
)

Why is it pointing down.... does it only intake from one side??? There is no logic of airflow there I think
Hey should we have a different thread about this intake???

So u reckon the filter should be facing front?? Than what is the blue cover for??
in my opinion it is in the right position, but i might be wrong.

I'm yet to be convinced there's any gains to be made by aftermarket intakes on NA cars. They sound better (if that's your thing) but I doubt they add much in terms of power.
Has anyone got access to reliable back to back dyno testing?

i dont believe for a second they give u power gains with N/A aswell, especially the renesis.
dont care if some ppl on here will claim their car got extra 5-10kw with intake.
if it was so easy to get power gains i rekon workshops should shut down right now!
