Just installed the PRM intake. Sounds soooo good.

If anyone ever needs help installing this let me know.

I'll help install it on your car for free too.

I live in Blue Bell. 20min away from NE Philly.

 

Do we get to see pictures? What did your butt-dyno say on the first run?

 

It almost feels like there is no power increase. 3rd Cam Lob switch over feels less pronounced as well. Power down low has increased and power curve seems to be smoother (which explains the 3rd switch over condition mentioned above). The Intake even makes the lowly econo cam rumble too hehe.

Then again... the Intake sound is so loud that i might 'still' not be paying attn. haha!!!

Either way, looking at the speedo and making timed runs In the last few days I'm definatly faster with the intake than not.

Driving to work today I rode up the revs and never left 1st gear other than getting into neutral. During that sprint, I set off two car alarms because of the Intake sound (cars were parked next to each other). heheheh (I still have the stock exhaust!). It was completely hilarious.

Another thing to mention, I'm sure as most of you know of the dreaded clutch delay valve. Since installing the intake I'm able to click off super clean shifts at WOT/Redline and not trigger the delay valve. :-)

Gas Off, clutch In, shift, clutch out, Gas On.

Not, Gas Off + Clutch In at the same time. <-- that will trigger the delay.

 

where did you get a PRM intake from? I thought they weren't made anymore.

 

I called them up direct and just ordered it. :-)

 

Best pic of the horn blower I could find. I forget this ol-timers name that had it on his car.

 

Isn't this sucking air from the engine bay?

 

The only way any intake is going to make a difference is if it's directly exposed to or extremly close to high pressure air.

Nothing that a plate diverting air similiar to one of the AUT mods can't cure if your worried about heat soak while ***Road Coursing***.

I seriously highly super duper intensly doubt an Auto-X will heat soak enough for any speculation to power via heat loss. If it's hot outside it's hot everywhere. Which is why I say you really only need high pressure air.

I must say that with the air box removed you could fit an entire person into that space.

Having driven and owning Porsches, Z06s (two of them), Track 350z, my road course times with Cold Air Intakes have been less than 1second difference (if traffic was clear).

 

theirs actually a hole in the fender and air gets up that way
