another aftermarket intake elbow

mugenh22a4 · Fri, Jul-25-2008, 12:34:06 PM

Found this at EMS tuning. About the same price as the Streamline elbow, but looks more finished IMO. And the plenum side is actually oval shaped, versus the Streamline's circular.

Anybody try this part yet?

Sweet! I think the biggest advantage of this piece is that its plenum side is shaped more like the, well . . . plenum!

Yeah, me too. But the stuff's gotta work and fit right though. So far, it seems like the piece from ECS fits the best. We'll see how brensm3 does with his elbow. . .

From the looks of it the Blue inside appears to be insulation. That would keep the air cooler than some of the others on the market.

EDIT... It's not insulated, that's the color of the material before they rap it.

its due to be shipped at my house today, I will take some pics and reset the ecu and do a butt dyno review

I've been tuning cars for years so I can give me objective calibrated butt dyno appearance after adaptation

It looks like these are engineered for specific racing.
