I just need some suggestions on what K&N I should buy when I'm just going to run it off of my TB. The current one I have is too long and impacts other objects under the hood (stupid me)I'm thinking a rather short and oval one.

what year and model car do you have?
07-13-2009
Oh sorry, I have a 97 GTP
07-13-2009
I have a 98 GTP.......not sure if you know this already or if it helps you, but they make a GM part that relocates your radiator overflow to the passenger side by the strut tower so that you have room for more things over there........if you would like I could send you a link for that part. I hope this helps. It makes things less cluttered in this area. This unit is stock for all models 99 and newer.

Otherwise if you leave it by the TB, you will be sucking in a lot of hot air. Your decision though
07-13-2009
Well If it doesn't need any specail parts, maybe I will just yank one off of a car at Pick 'N' Pull.

http://www.pfyc.com/pc/GP3009/GP/gp3009.html this is where you can get it, it is a geniune gm part and comes with hose........or you can find one in a junkyard.

not sure why the link won't work but pfyc has it.........around 40 dollars if I remember correctly.

I haven't done this to my vehicle yet, but will be soon when installing the CAI......fwiw

Oh wow that is a much better bottle - even if I dont do a FWI it still looks like a good thing to do.

congrats on getting the mod bug........I hope you like opening your wallet. Get used to it and have fun.............
07-13-2009
Yeah XD Have to make that money first. Just going to add that filter and U-bend delete for now~
07-13-2009
you gonna do the powerlog at the same time as the downpipe?
07-13-2009
Cone filter off the TB will only hurt you unless you are heavily modded. Relocate the coolant bottle and make a fenderwell.
07-13-2009
QFT. you can only pull off an open come with a substantial amount of mods. namely: an intercooler.Originally Posted by bluegtp91

Seriously? Even with all the problems the stock intake has it would still be better then running it right off of the Throttle Body?
07-13-2009
the stock is still closer to the fender, not sucking quite as hot of air......neither are ideal.
07-13-2009
Yes. Seriously. But if you don't believe us put a filter on your TB and feel it die after 2500-3000 rpm's when it heats up.

you need to be pretty heavily modded to get gains from an open cone, but when you get there youll notice a big gain in flow.
