Cold Air Intake Question

[Jackel402]

I just noticed that the Marauder that I have is still using the original tubing for the air intake to connect the air filter to the throttle body but who ever had it before me switched out the air filter box with a K&N canister. My question is how much would I benefit from replacing all that with a whole after market assembly?

It will smooth out your air flow and it looks better. As far as actual HP/TQ gains, who knows, minimal at best.

Checkout JLT's website. I believe there are before & after dyno results there.

Can you take a pic? That's kind of a cool idea if they did a nice job of it. I like having a resonated stock intake to keep the noise down up there. I had someone on this board who will remain unnamed, who has an aftermarket intake that I won't mention the brand of, on his car, drive my car and comment on how much faster my car is than his. My car has a stock air box. I doubt there is much real world gain, just a lot of noise gain, on an otherwise stock MM. On a modified MM that needs more air, might make a noticeable difference.

Sounds like exactly how my last MM was setup. It was ALOT quieter than my JLT that was for sure. Post a pic.
