its got to be better than the second turbo intake! but it really does get more air and has dropped my fuel economy.

Anthony PM is on its way

Have seen one on an AU XR6, plumbed straight into the throttle body. If it doesnt do something, no induction mod will.

but definatly gets cold air and definatly looks cool either way

I agree with you 100% !
They look ok, but the plumbing looks like you would loose a lot of that nice cold air as it travels along the kilometers of pipe before it hits the T/B.
it would be better if it went straight down the throat of it.

i know a couple of I6 AU and EL owners have them plumbing straight into the TB from the shaker with some sort of filter (probably a uni filter type arangment or small pod?? im not sure as i didnt have a good enough look)

but that definatly would be benefitial
