samco hose from kingmotorsports.com (i know they sell it there)

BPI stack setup at bpinitiatives.com

you will find your gains will be greater with this setup over any other and there are dyno proven graphs for this.

i also run this setup with a 3" filter

I guess you make a thread, then skip over all the responses...

Your answer (Already answered 7 posts up):

I can give a better deal on the Samco intake tubes than King Motorsports does, we're direct with BPi, and the K&N filter for said kit I can sell a lot less than most people do. I have a whole package for this kit put together if anyone's interested. Intake tube, stack, filter, clamps, vacuum lines, vacuum fittings and all.

Are you serious?

Go fight kill- that’s a really cool setup, have you thought of maybe making an enclosure
for your filter to diminish heat soak?

I have the exact setup as you except I made my intake arm out of 3" aluminized steel.
I am very curious to see if the samco arm provides any gains over a steel or aluminum piece.

^ Not that a dyno will show. However, on track, the silicone will ultimate hold up better to heat soak than aluminum will. That's the reason I decided to change from a cut down AEM 3" CAI.

I just picked up a AEM 3 inch CAI from ebay.....i was planning on putting a BPi vstack on that. Have you ever tried using a vstack in the configuration of CAI prior to cutting it down to SRI? I hear in most cases, the longer the intake tube, the more power it should make hence some argue that AEM CAI with vstack should yield the best results.

well guys......here is my new engine bay ;-)

wow, cant belive you bout a aem intake.

would have been better with a saamco and bpi stack if you listened

it made more power over my are/mugen intake set up now im running the samco with my mugen intake i like it alot

redGSRguy

Got the dyno graph? Wouldn't the response be due to moving from a CAI setup to a short ram type setup? I may pick one of them up from you guys once I get a shell for my old motor!

Not sure if this was directed at me or not but i got a great deal on the AEM.....and i was trying to run a CAI with BPi vstack, wasn't sure if samco actually made a CAI piping.

What about a Password:JDM whale ***** intake? Do those actually make power are are they all for looks?

turbociv910

no, that was not directed towards you, sorry if it seemed like it!


no, looks, yes, and for being made fun of.

l will put it on dyno once i find a cheap OBD1 p30 ECU to chip myself!!!!

Any cheap stock p30 ECUs around?

I call BS. A short ram intake will make more mid range for sure. Of course if you're running a open BPI stack on a dyno with hood open it should make more power. Run a open BPI stack on a AEM CAI V2 then you can do a good comparison. You can also debate about the warm air inside the engine bay vs air outside for the CAI.

zammitjon

Most o them dont ship to Malta in Europe!! and im looking to spend less than $100...

turbociv910

ever think of what your cai is made of? aluminum?

Heat soak from the engine bay temps on a metal intake pipe vs a saamco arm....

Outrun

Does the air even stay in the tube long enough to get hot?

Anyways, I'm wondering what happened to this website that had tests of different mods on an ITR. IIRC it was a student site hosted on a university website but his site has been long gone since he graduated.

IDK if thats an app or your really banned but want this setup with purple samco tube quote with shipping to 13603 or anyone who sells this setup...:thumb up:

wow....i can't believe OP actually turned a blind eye/ear to all the good suggestions given...

i'm also running the samco intake arm/mugen intake and i agree it is pretty darn good xD

JayDMB16EG
