Fujita Short Ram Intakes (Pics)

http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/6...6258100sq2.jpg My first impressions. First, the engine sound louder, but deeper, unlike the tiny stock engine screaming when you rev the red line. It's a beautiful sound. 2nd, it looks phat. :p 3rd, I did feel a little more torque during 4th and especially 5th gear. Although I still couldn't break 110 mph during the ride home. 4th, You do feel a little vibration I suppose the engine is taking in air a lot more direct and easier than before. But nothing out of the ordinary where you would think the hood is gonna explode. I really do think its because it is a light weight car, we feel the road and the noise just as how the car came originally. Again, feedbacks are appreciated. I have not studied regarding of K&N Intakes however, I was impressed when I saw the dyno chart Fujita posted on their site, and went for it. |

If you have installed a intake on another car before it should only take you about 10-15 minutes to install short ram intakes. I did notice a bit of vibration and I thought it was cuz the engine is breaking in finally after 4k miles. But since you mentioned that after installing the intake, you felt a little vibration. So I guess that's what's causing it. You will only notice if you sit there and try to feel the car otherwise, you wont' feel it when driving daily. Looks good. I'll have to buy one in the future to replace the autozone one I bought..lol.. -Tomi |

wait so you hooked the coolant tube to the intake? did you run it with it like that? pretty sure coolant is not good to have in the combustion camber....

low coolant

you have to replace a hose from the front of the engine to the throttle body. and it pissed antifreeze. the overall job is no big deal. the directions that come with the intake are decent.
