Unsure what kind of intake for a stock GT

haha nick, i cut the hole then put it on and just got the "oh well fyck me" face on lol so i ordered the extension. it literally took me 3 months to get all the pieces for this thing together and then after finally getting it all put together. it took another 3 weeks to put it on

Because an intake helps improve fuel economy?

GT's have higher gearing compared to the supercharged cars.

3.29's vs 2.93's

Resonator delete wont do anything.

its a straight piece of perforated pipe.

I do drive with a light foot already but just looking to save more. An intake is cheap enough it will have paid for itself after a few fillups with the way prices are. A downpipe is in the plans for this summer too.

Dude^^...Don't listen to this Pro guy...he has no clue what he is talking about...seriously.

dude your just upset cause i insulted your sedan.

You're full of yourself.

You are completely wrong.

an intake will take forever to pay for itself, if ever.

(talking out of my ass)

with gas prices nowadays, 1mpg gain will pay for itself almost immediately.

Proves you suck at math. Even if you only get 1 mpg (which others have shown more) with an intake that 17 extra miles per tank. If you were geting 21 and are now getting 22 mpg your cost per mile at $4.15 a gallon is .197 and .188 respectively.

If you spend $60 on an intake it would take about 6500 miles to pay for itself. Thats not alot when the average driver drives 12,000 miles a year. I am more than average in that I drive 15,000 miles a year just to go to work and back. Its nothing for me to hit 20,000 miles a year.

Take that .009 difference and it will save $180 over that 20,000 miles, and thats only if yo see 1 mpg. If you get a more significant change in mpg, the savings raise substantially.

Quit talking out of your ass and let the people that know what they are talking about answer questions.

I don't think you know ANYTHING about cars and you are just running your mouth to start sh!t.

He is.

Much more and he won't be around to run his mouth except for all the stupid people he helps at Autozone.

I dont know what more sad...that he is trying to start something over this or that he may actually believe the crap he's saying.

How about we talk about the OP again. Good idea? I think so.
