    Hey everyone. Looks like I'm buying a 02 gtp and was wondering which intake u guys suggest. I've heard of 3 kinds. Cold air, not sure on these last two. Round cone and short ram (I think). My goal is of coarse to get more hp but mostly I want to hear that sc whine more than ever. So what u guys think. Also what are some other not too expensive mods for hp?

    Thx guys That's deffineyly lots of info blue. So basically it looks like all I can do right now for cheap performance is put an open cone intake on for now. What kind of filter do u guys use. And just PVC pipe or something like that?

    it limits us from being able to do a "complete" intake. yeah we can put an elbow on the end of the throttle body and a filter on the end of the maf, but we still have the crappy looking maf in the middle which just looks stupid lol

    97-03 cars take a long open cone spectra finter slap it on end of throttle body and put drill a hole in side of rubber to put IAT into. or put a pvc elbow on end of tb and drill a hole in that then put the filter on end of that but since you want something straight befor the maf for more accurate readings slapping a cone on seems to be best

    on 04+ car put an elbow on tb then put your maf to that with the spectra filter connected to maf
    and just drill a hole into w/e the orig IAT sat and put it in there

    i think im going to buy a k&n intake for mine. putting a filter on the end of the throttle body sounds pretty ricerish, if you ask me.

    that k and N is worth less. and the oil you put on the filter is known to mess with your maf sensor.


    you can buy intake tubes at the local parts store and slap a dry filter on the end and be done with it whole set will run you under 40 bucks.

    this is how mine came out. ait sensor in the tube and all.
