eBay Generic Short Ram Intake (most popular)

Ok, this bad boy will run you about 30 bucks. It is probably the most popular ebay intake you'll find. Mine had a red filter on it.



This thing boasts a 8-12 hp and a 10-15 lb/tq gain. Of course nothing like that is true. It does have a nice sound to it. And will get you a little better mpg. I felt a little smoother accel but seriously nothing amazing whatsoever. Its nice for the butt dyno but other than that forget about it. Fitments ok in the engine bay, except for the throttle body part. It only comes with one clamp, i needed two, so that it would stay there n not wobble. Theres a little bar thing thats included, it doesnt connect to anything, i dont know why it came with the kit. The blue rubber hose is ok, but i only used it temporarily because those hoses are known to split. I went and got a way thicker stronger one later that day. And it looks pretty cool under the hood, if u keep it clean, nice and shiny and a nice big filter in the front so everyone can know u mean business...So...ok here are the quick stats:

Fit: 7
Power: 2 (1-10)
Looks: 9
Price: 10!!

Re: eBay Generic Short Ram Intake (most popular)

intake = pipe and filter

A pipe is the same as another pipe so just buy a good quality filter, replace the crap Ebay filter and you're done. End cost = $50.

Re: eBay Generic Short Ram Intake (most popular)

I believe gearbox did a review on the filters.. seems like AEM dryflow was the best.
