Okay guys, 3 in.

We are getting there.

Talux, I'll put you on the Probables list.

*EDIT*

Talux, you were already on there mang.

BTW Folks, with Ultra Tibby paying this weekend when David gets back to him, that's 4 total. One more for the first Price Break.

so if you have this without the BBTB you won't notice the 15-20+HP gain?
how much will the GB on the BBTB be? and when will it be?
is installation hard?
i will most likely be in on this smile.gif yay my first GB

No, you won.t

Still waiting on the price for the BBTB, but that GB won't be till after this one.

Taking the IM off can be hard, it's just difficult to get enough torque on there. If you look at it for a bit first though and figure it out, it won't be hard.

Bring a breaker bar.

You won't get 15 to 20 HP by buying this Airram. You need to have a tuned and adjusted car to get gains.

Tuned.

Having done stuff to your car, cams, intake, exhaust, BBTB, stuff like that. SAFC would definately help too.

Doode, look, now you are starting to piss me off.

First off, you've been talking to Fordfasterr and the guys at the ElantraXD forums that run the Beta2. This IM works on the Beta 1 and 2, though you do have to modify it for the Beta 2. Fordfasterr also runs a 3 inch intake and exhaust, which is why he is losing power. Simple. The stock intake system on the Tiburon and Elantra's is very restrictive, this helps that fact. Like I've said SEVERAL times in the past month, we have many folks that have this IM around the world and Fordfasterr is the only one that has a problem with it. I wonder why. We have a member of this forum, Cybershark, who has this IM on his NA Tiburon and said he has shown significant gains with it. He is also going to go run a dyno for us.

Second off, stop postint your car and mods with every post. If you want them on every post, put them in your Profile in your SIGNATURE.

So yes, we've heard this, from one person, who mods in an insane way, and probably didn't install it correctly.

Can we get a verification of the height. I really don't want to lose my strut bar. I know you think it's just a bar, but it's KORE's first design which was so badass and expensive, no one could buy them. lol It's twice as thick as other bars, lazer etched, and polished. So it's hard to decide which to get rid of. 02.gif But of course I'm more into pure performance, so.......
