Default Re: New SRT-6 CAI from JMB Performance

Can you post an audio clip of the engine revving?

Anyway why dont you buy two silicone tubes and two 45 and run it behind the grille like the needswings. The only reason I ask is not to steal needswings design but it would be great to compare the numbers of dual intake verse single intake with same filter placement. JMO but I think you would have better luck selling something like this, and it would put to rest the argument that one intake is better then two.

Not sure if a single or dual (or pulling air from the front through the restriction, or pulling from the engine bay with no restriction) will provide better power, but to tell you the truth I think we are talking the difference between a few hp, if anything. There's no magic going on here guys, I think the main thing to realize here is anything is better than the ridiculously restrictive stock intake. You will pick up power with any of the aftermarket intakes that are available.

I don't have a sound clip, at some point I plan to have my buddy who has a digital camera that can shoot audio ride with me, not sure when this will happen.

Again, I'm not trying to "sell" these. I knew what I wanted and had JMB make the intake for me. I'm very happy with the product and thought I would post here and show it off. I knew there would be questions about buying it so I asked JMB if they wanted to make more. They said if they could get around 5 or so people interested for a group buy he would make a batch of them, that's it. If people aren't interested in buying one then that will just make mine more rare, one of one
