Cold air? Ram air?

[ChrisCantSkate]

i dont see how this can be debated... you can get a short ram intake you keep more low end tq, but lack top end, cold air, you loose a little more low end(cause of the length of the intake) but the colder air does make a substantial difference when you put things in perspective. a short ram MIGHT yeild 3whp maybe 4. a cold air is maybr 5-7, thats a 75-100% power increase. its your call, i'd say cold air, cause if you cut 3 or 4 shortcuts... like well, this header is only 2 or 3 hp less, and this exaust is only 2-3 hp less thinking your saving money you get 15hp instead of 20- pr 25 out of all your bolt ons, and even though you saved $300, its going to cost you more than $300 to get to the same level of performance that you could have been at if you didnt take shortcuts. do it once, do it right. if you buy ebay intakes or weld a muffler on, your throwing away money if you really care about performance. if all you want is the look and being able to say i have these mods, then sure, by all means shop APC and ractive for products.
