Custom air intake for 5.0 v8 Supercharged - made a big difference!
My take on mods -
1. If it works worse...bad.
2. If it works the same...bad, unless it was free then see #'s 4 & 5.
3. If it works better...great.
4. If you enjoyed doing it.. great.
5. If you feel better that it's no longer stock and more unique...great
6. If it works way better than you ever thought it should for the price...perfect.

When I finally get my intake designed and built I plan on doing back to back on the dyno, but i really don't expect to see to much of anything. I will also be looking at the pressure loss through the filters on the runs so that even if it isn't making more power initially, there could be more on tap with the correct tune put in place.
Kyanite, I like that, that's basically my thinking too when it comes to mods. I usually enjoy making my own parts so even if the performance comes out even, I still call it a win.

If you are getting better performance with your custom intake, I'm wondering how much the stock is compromised by efforts to reduce sound although I've always heard the intake flowed more than enough air.
And I know that heat soak is an issue from my dyno runs, so maybe I'll start figuring out some way to try and cool things down on the stock intake. Anyone have any suggestions?

Just purchased and installed 2 conned filters absolutely love the whining sound BUT lost power, acceleration and now a crazy hesitation.
