"Cold air" intake for supercharged 2.7 worth it?

Haha for now. Still thinking of selling it. Might run it on eBay.

 

The S/C or the whole truck?

 

The whole truck.

 

Throw some methanol on there or a fic and do an e-85 conversion, run 10 psi and you'll probably be pretty happy.

 

Took like 1500 miles for the computer to adjust but it makes a big difference. I can feel when it's boosting. Idk if I'd pay $2775 again, but it definitely has more HP and torque.

When I first put it on I wasn't impressed. It takes a bit for the computer to figure out what it needs to do

 

Emailed LC engineering. They said Magnuson recommends leaving the stock air box because apparently it runs better with the stock airbox

 

I DONT KNOW WHY ANYONE HASENT TALKED ABOUT THIS, EVERY CAR YOU WILL EVER FIND WILL RUN 10000 BETTER ON THE STOCK AIRBOX THEM ANYTHINNG YOU WILL TRY TO FAB UP THERE, dyno is proven to actually lose HP and overall speed

 

So where's the point where an intake becomes beneficial? I've never seen a vehicle that was well built use a stock intake.

 

No way?!?

 

I'm impressed that they were straight up and honest with you about it. That's a company I'll back and support.

 

It's always a good thing to help a boosted motor breath more easy. Can give small power gain, better gas mileage, better throttle response and most important can sound awesome.
