Have the 1.6 interested in changing intake. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks

 

cold air intake try www.injen.com to see I think they have an application for a 1.6 Liter

 

ram air doesn't exsist....even with the fake hoods. Just get a nice SRI or CAI. I personally just use the stock intake (modfied).

 

have used both and noticed no difference in power, so the Short Ram is safer and thats what i went with

 

Injen is pricey. Ebay intakes own. Just add a K&N filter on the end of it.

 

Hey guys... Whats a Highly recommended intake manufacture and why? When the intake is installed will it cause a engine light to come on or any problems to accour?

 

Go with Injen on their site they have actual proven dyno gains, When you install the intake no cel should come up as long as all the hoses are connected and everything is installed correctly and oh and make sure you disconnect the negative battery terminal and reconnect after the install so that the ecu get's usto the the new air/fuel ratio if you don't then you will **** up your air/fuel ratio you do this so the ecu gets usto the new amount of air and resets it's self.

you get better gains out of the apexi-power intake filter

 

Thanks subghetto. So disconect the negative wire from the battery before installing. Who told you this procedure? Also which intake is better the injen or Apexi? Did you do this mod on you MP5? Thanks.

 

Yes disconnect the battery before you install the intake if you get the injen intake it says it in the instructions, I read the instructions that's how I knew about the procedure but some people who did'nt do it correctly started complaining on the forum that they car was idling to rough and it was feeling ghetto as hell so I was lucky good thing I read the instructions. Apexi does'nt make an intake, what I mean is get the Injen CAI or Ebay which ever one you decided and get the apexi-power intake filter. Get the apexi air filter at the end of what ever intake you get it is so much better but will prob run you high so I would do it lata since the cost of the filter is around $60-$70 and you also need a universal adapter which is also around like another $60 so I would up grade later. I will be installing the apexi-power intake air filter at the end of my Injen CAI very very soon....... make sure whaever intake you get you DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL!! well anyway if you have anymore questions post them.

BTW.. If you need to know where to buy the apexi air-filter and adapter post here, I also have an article about an intake test so if you want to see that also let me know. Lataz

 

So did this APEXi filter on Injen CAI ever get discussed/reviewed? I want it!
part #500-A027 UNIVERSAL FILTER AND 70MM FLANGE?

 

I use K&N typhoon CAI. It came with great step by step installation instructions and you know your getting a good product when it comes from K&N. Adds about 5 to 10 HP advertised and dyno proven. K&N is about $20 cheaper than Injen. Also the K&N is a two piece so it allows you to convert your intake into a short ram.

 

I have had an Injen for 5+ years and need a new filter APEXi is the ****!

 

well i installed the short ram air intake and didn't diconnect the battery cable. Now the car is running like crap. Can i install the OEM intake and try again or wat shoul i do? thanks

 

are you sure your installation is correct ???...you can still disconnect the battery and reset the ecu...

 

Is the MAF facing the right direction?
