i am in the market for a new intake for my 96 teg. does it make a big difference if i get a cheap intake as oppose to a name brand like injen or aem. am i gonna gain the same hp.

 

No difference whatsoever. Get a 10 dollar ebay one.

 

its in the filter not the piping as much. get an ebay generic intake, short ram or cold air, then upgrade the filter with a k&n or something of high quality.

also id say alluminum piping is better, ive seen some genic ones with steel piping which adsorbs more heat.....heat soaks bad./

 

Are you kidding me?? Get a known brand, a chrome metal one will NOT give you power (maybe 1hp) metal intakes soak heat, thats why i will be changing mine soon, cause i have a metal one, the bigger the piping the better! but prolly not bigger than 4"

hey, learn something....aluminum is metal which most are aluminum, i just stated make sure that your dont get a steel one, also the bigger is not better,,,,its the same cocepts as exhausts you need to remove restrictions, but keep the air velocity. 4" is way to big the largest id say go would be 3" and the smallest maybe 2.25". put its mostly all in the filter if the pipe is good.
