Thread: Open Cone Intake.

I tried looking around for this but I couldn't find a thread that provided specs. I have a '98 GTP and was planning on putting on an open cone intake. What size/etc should I be looking for?

This design is short-ram, though, not open cone.

Its better to do the short ram intake so the air has a little time to not be so turbulant and possibly skew the maf readings.

I was intending on going with the open-cone-slapped-onto-tb style. What cone specs should I look for? What will fit? What intake size? etc.

What length can I use without worrying about it hitting anything?

Bought a 9" cone and have decided to build a short ram.

Is your coolant reservoir behind the driver headlight or on the passenger strut tower?

Well boys, she's all done. Feels a bit snappier and there's so much whine you'd get drunk off it.

Good stuff all around.

There's nothing wrong with that design, I just chose the larger filter and ended up having to do the short ram intake.

Also, that design eliminates the IAT sensor.

Regardless, my **** works good, so I'm not worried about it.
