Custom Intake for STR
I recently purchased a custom intake and installed a cone filter. I instantly felt an increase in low end torque and at WOT, the sound is incredible.
The intake pipe came from billetdesign.com in Pompano Beach.....

I do notice an increase in low end torque during stop and go traffic. I did keep the factory air cleaner intake pipe which does deliver air from the front of the car.
I actually do have a heat shield, but I removed it when I changed the filter.
The intake pipe was a custom fabrication.

Nice professional looking job. Did you have to tweek the ECU or did it automatically adjust to your mods?

I have not tweaked the ECU. It should adjust, but I'm sure the car would benefit if I had the ECU tuned. The person who fabricated the intake pipe is also working on tuning the ECU.
Ya know, F-Body's and Vette's have a filter that goes from the throttle body, over the radiator into the front of the grill. I'm going to do some research. There has to be a way to get the filter in the grill somehow.
I'm thinking like these:

Let me know how that ECU tuning comes along, I live in Ft. Lauderdale and I've been trying to squeeze a little more power out of the little 4.2.. I've already built a custom exhaust and I'm having my TB and the eaton ported, and i'm working on modifying the stock intake, but I really need a tune.. The eurotoys chip sounds good on paper, but it's a bit pricey and I don't know how good there support is going to be if something bad happens...
