Why? No offense to mike, I know his stuff is great, but a 4" AL intake is a 4" AL intake. My filter draws from the inner fender, has a perfect 90 into the charger. Just gotta weld in my MAF sensor bung.

Please expand. You have the filter that , at best , will destroy that turbo. My intake isn't 4" , nor is it aluminum , my filter is about 3 times the size of yours , and it doesn't need to be pulled at the track like a smart person should. LOL just know , you have to own everything you say , no matter where you say it. Please don't ever compare that thing to mine because it doesn't.

Mike I know exactly what your talking about. I didn't, other than the price. All I said is for 125 bucks with my AFE filter it does a very good job, and that I do pull it when I push my truck because that's proven flow improvement over any intake and when you race a truck as big as mine you need any advantage you can get. Never talked down about you or your product, your nut swingers just get upset when someone doesn't run your product.

Yeah, on stock or aftermarket drop in chargers I have no doubt a no limit is the best. But on a single, every setup is different, you have to accommodate. Let's look what makes his intake special, since we all think I'm talking **** about it. It had a short straight reducer from 5" to 4", and a 90 degree reducer from 4" to 3", a MAF bung and a filter minder bung. Now look at mine. I have a straight 4" intake. No airflow changes with reducers and such (not that it makes a big difference.) I draw from the location where the stock or any aftermarket intake draws from, the inner fender. I have a MAF bung. No filter minder though. That's the comparison. My intake works good for my truck with my driving style. It's cheap. Shiny. And has a sticker. Did I talk bad about mikes intake? No. I never have. As a matter of fact there's multiple threads here with me telling people his parts are worth every penny. So there you have it. I can see far past the end of my nose. Even if I'm cross eyed.

What's so special about your single turbo that mikes intake doesent work? I've got a s367 making 50 psi using mikes intake and the filter minder never moves? I honestly don't care what you run for a intake, but it's just food for thought.

If using mikes parts on my truck because they work awesome makes me a nut swinger.... Then call me George of the jungle because I'm swinging from those bitches all day LOL

Don't have a good video yet, waiting on photographer to finalize everything, trucks towing a 6.0 from here (northern IL) to NJ and bringing another back this weekend, so when it gets back I'll get a little back road video for y'all. Here's this for now.....
