amx1397,
As soon as you have a pipe from the turbo to the stock box I would like one. If you have a proto I would love to try it or a phot.

Yes Jim, I would still like to see the turbo to air box pipe. I couldn't open the pic you emailed me.

Ditto...I would like to have a black, shiny, unrestricted pipe from the turbo to the factory airbox.

macster, do you have pics of the Typhoon? I cannot find any on the Web at all. (shame on K&N)

No PT pics though. I have a Gtech Competition on the way, so I will be able to measure K&N drop-in vs. OEM filters.

A side note, for some strange reason, I am now getting a boost spike of 15 and dropping down to 10-11, whereas before I was only getting a spike of 13, I have no clue as to why this is happening now. Maybe I secured the hoses properly. But I'm gonna move my boost gage tap to the intake manifold. I'm also going to paint the Typhoon Patriot Blue. Hope the pictures help you guys, I'm sorry about the size and that I haven't organize everything.

Bro

Chrome belongs on wheels not on cars. I'm going to paint the intake manifold and valve cover. I also am working with AMX to create a color coordinated CAI for me. The factory hood bar works great!. My service manager already knows about not flashing the ECU. When something is wrong and I have to take it in, I packaged the stock ECU and injectors in a box on the floor. He is also aware of the Stage mods for these cars because we have talked about it.

now for the rest of the story, I have spoken to macster and he has tested the amx1397 intake but tested it on a apples to apples, where in his test by him the amx1397 out preformed and was slightly quiter.
now apples to apples means the intakes were installed in the same place.(wirh the filter nose down in front of the batt.) in fact he also did not install the nose on the amx1397 and did not put it into the fenderwell as should be.look at pic www.ptcw.truckmoxie.com/amx1397/ and you will see the partin front of the filter goes into the fenderwell, if this had been tested this way the amx1397 intake would increse mpg, hp, and boost, way more than then others tested, again I want to thank MACSTER for doing the compairson from 3456 miles from you I thank you. amx1397@aol.com
