I went to get my new esky dynoed tonight. Afe intake made 24 rwhp/21 tq over stock but that's just part of story. More power across the board and at 3700 rpms we saw a peak of 31 rwtq vs stock. Any questions just ask and thanks to precision auto in san bruno and my buddy jason.

Which AFE intake is it? Open one or boxed?

Been doing this set up for the guys that want a little more bump without spending $$$. Replace oem filter with green filter or k&n and then do this mod. Very easy and MUCH more air coming in.


Remove stock intake box and you have this small entry for air flow
