In the process of swapping out the Ebay crap that was put on my car by the P.O. to quality / new parts. I'm up in the air with the Injen intake and the ARC induction box. Did some searching and saw some concerns with intercooler piping and the ARC induction box getting in the way. Is the clearance issue with induction box big or slight if anyone knows first hand.
Also is the cold air and the induction box a night and day comparison?

Thanks in advance guys

 

just buy a buschur intake... unless you wanna waste money on bling and go for the arc lol

 

Drop-in filter is fine until you get to 350-400WHP. Make sure to get it tuned or you'll be running lean.

 

The Injen intake comes with UICP & LICP. Good price.

 

my buddy has the hard pipes and all that it blew off once when he was racing still ran a 12.4 but he has not said anything bad at what level would they start to be a restriction ? or should we all go buscher and ams ?

 

I have the Injen UICP and the intake, but use a different LICP and have never had a problem with it blowing off.

 

buschur intake all the way!

 

I've always wonder what makes buschur/ams products better then others? Don't get me wrong, I'm not bad mouthing them or anything. But I'm just wondering why people think they're better then other products like ARC, Injen, HKS and stuff like that.

Is it do to price, performance or is it because their Evo produce a lot of HP?

Price, they're product isn't any cheaper then other major tuners.

Performance, most intake are a few HP from one to another.

I do believe that Buschur/AMS Evo makes the most HP. But other tunner never really go for the all out HP war.

Once again, I am not bad mouthing Buschur or any other tunners out there. I'm just wondering why some prefer them.

 

Did he have t-bolt clamps on it?

 

with that said. Im swapping out the HDI intercooler in it now for an AMS..anyone know if those pipes will fit that intercooler?

 

Honestly there really isn't much of a reason other then they have both developed a loyal fan base that will suggest their products even if there is nothing special that sets that product apart from anyone elses.

 

not sure never asked but for the price they dont seem bad but you never see anybody with them its all ams this or that and thats fine with me just wanna no what works

 

If I could do it again, I'd get the ARC.
Have Injen now....

 

that is true.. ive heard real good things about ams/buschur so that makes me feel alot better about their products.. plus they make their products and have tested them... that makes me feel better also..

 

I got the box but i also got the UICP and intercooler setup and everything fits. Thats all you are paying for though when gettin ARC is "SEXY". Its all looks, dont get me wrong it performs but you are paying for the name and looks more less.
