My point is that the Injen and HKS intakes also work well but they cost many times more and dont make any more power

Other intakes such as the K & N Typhoon and some other as of yet unknown blue thing which I have seen on a few cars the past couple of weeks usually wind up in dyno disappointments for my customers

At $80 the Buschur Intake works great and makes great power

 

Is that the Helix intake you're referring to? The Helix has a blue filter and blue couplers

 

Nice #'s. And yes Buschur does make a great product.

 

no the helix is great - I am going to try and find this nightmarish blue thing now

 

Al, i'm asking you. if you use a K&n filter with the stock mass air pipe (not the typhoon) will the results be different??? or what if you used an Injen filter again with the stock mass air pipe? or an AEM filter with the stock mass air pipe??? would the results be different??? What kind of filter does he use??? I thought it was just a no name filter? A local guy over here had the actual filter piece fall off of the plate its glued to. buschur sent him another one so it was all good, but i think any cone style filter will yield the same results if used with the stock mass air pipe

 

One more thing for those who question my recomendation of Buschur Parts - I use the same parts on my 9 second race evo. From the race fmic kit to the fmic pipes - mini battery kit - alcohol kit - I run the same parts on my own race car

I went 9 seconds with the same standard 3" exhuast that they sell with every BR stage 1 - 4 kit. The stuff works.

 

true - after tuning the various styles of filters will all make similar whp - with the excpetion of the few that for some reason just do not work

However - in many cases when tuning you see that the VE table must be modified to compensate for distortions in the mass air flow

I can tune any air filter to a flat a/f curve like the one in the posted dyno sheet above - however in many cases it takes a lot more work to do so with some other filters

from what i have seen Buschur uses his own proprietary intake which is unique in that it incorporates the adapter plate into the filter itself which greatly simplifies installation

 

Here is the so called "HKS STYLE INTAKE KIT" which retains for the crazy price of $99 which has suddenly sprung up in mant of my customers's cars

Typical ebay china rip off garbage

BEWARE THIS POS intake

I call it the blue death

Save hundreds on an intake by getting this life time warrantied PRO-1 made system!

i say save $ and loose whp

i think i am getting a bit off topic now - which was first intended to just be happy about a car which came out great on the dyno and which made me hapy

BUT - what ever you do - don't get that blue death el cheapo intake

 

[QUOTE=DynoFlash]Here is a 2005 Evo with a

Buschur Air Filter - no mass air pipe

3" exhuast

264 cams

Forge MBC

Walbro pump

Custom Dyno Flash tune

22 psi peak falling to 20

93 Octane fuel

Note how well the Buschur Air filter works in metering the air flow. The a/f curve is like a flat line.

The changes needed from my mail in tune were so slight that a custom tune was virtually uneeded.

The simple, inexpensive, USA made Buschur Racing parts work well, out perform JDM parts which cost much more and they are simple to install.

I just added up the cost of the above items at www.buschurracing.com and the total was $1,935 with a lightweight battery kit. If you can do it yourself then not a bad way to spend $2K 'n change. Is there anyone that can beat that??

 

I thought you said you were selling that turbo set-up Al...maybe I am wrong and you were selling your old gt35

 

I am selling all the small turbo set ups actually

I have a GT42R set up in the works for next year

 

No need for the cheap shot. Al has given the others credit in the past as well. This car in this thread happens to run Buschur parts and he notes that he runs some of the same parts on his car. Why does that bother you?

I'm sure you'll see more 9s from Al when his schedule and the weather allows.

 

small turbo kits....haha. Cant wait to see some records fall with the 42R!

 

im jealous....i have an 03 with HKS 272s and the similar mods (same but diff vendor) on an afc and put down 321whp and 304tq....lot of ppl tellin me afc is killin me which i can belive because i doubt its the parts...
