Sorry to start another piggback thread guys, but from doing a search all I could find was that the piggyback gives you better power throughout the power band.

What I want to know is that will the piggyback regain the massive (I might be over exaggerating) loss in low-end torque that I suffered after installing the CAI and then some AS WELL as smooth out the entire power band? The reason why I ask is because the low-end pull is an important factor for me because I do a lot of city driving.

I also don't want to put the stock air box back on because if the piggy can do what I hope it can, I will definitely have to pick it up.

For those that have the piggy installed... what are your opinions of the piggyback + CAI compared to STOCK after driving around with it for so long.

Thanks.

 

i don't think there was any MASSIVE lost in the lowend..

maybe 4-5 hp at most

there is a lose of torque at all /w the cai? coulda fooled me. anyway, its a big gain and worth the cash. there are dynos in the registry of cars with and without all combos u are mentioning. check them out and decide if its right for u.

 

I just ordered mine, I will definitely let you know, as i have the sri and people claim that it reduces your torque down low, ive never heard of it. Ive heard that the piggy adds power throughout the entire rpm range, but then again, they could be full of it for all I know.

 

I dont know about that massive loss you are saying. Cause, when I had my RA, I had my cai for a time and then i put the piggy and dp at the same time. And I can tell you that those 3 things make a huge diff. Cause around here there are a lot of RA, modded and stock. and I could toy w/ the stock ones so bad that it isn't even funny. So those 3 thing are amost if you dont plan to go turbo

 

Awesome. I'd like to read your review on the piggy when you get it installed. I might wanna pick it up soon after.

 

I'm probably just being really knit picky, but it's the low-end in first gear that I'm referring to. For example in stock form you would need a very steady foot when going over bumps in first or else your car would start jerking from all the torque, but I need to give it more throttle for the same effect or from a stop.

 

Thanks blk-majik I'll check 'em out. It will be interesting to see the differences for all the combinations.

 

that jerking is probably not related to the intake
