just e-mailed comptech, just to make sure the Comptech UNI/Filter that I've purchased 2 weeks ago will fit the Ice Box using my stock intake hose. Like I knew it would, Comptech said it's ok to use, But stated that the only difference will be is that I'll loose some flow with the factory piping. Is this true??

 

Maybe a little air flow, but the stock intake is just as big as the comptech.

 

Not enough to notice, on the Dyno or the track. Waste of $$

 

Thanks for the 411!

 

They just want money in their pockets. Icebox is best for the stock/sleeper look. Keep the stock hose and put the money that is saved towards Headers.

you're right 01typer..... just save it on my v-tec controller since I already have headers on her...

 

I think what they meant was they'll lose a little of their cash flow if you don't buy the aluminum pipe .

 

that is funny.The King motorsportsMotorolla cup ITR's use the stock pipe and seem to have no trouble with it.Comptech

 

just take off the stock airbox cover

 

can you use the stock filter in the icebox or do you have to to get the unifilter

 

Yes, you can use the stock filter...and with the Comptech filter I saw a gain of 1 whp and a loss of 1 lb/trq on the dyno. Not worth the money if you ask me. I'm sure that the K&N I got can do as good if not better for only $35.
