I wish to see your FWI and know what gains (if any) you have seen...and this is for FWI not CAI thanks!

PFYC says about 17hp. Dont know how accurate that is. As for pics ill try and find the thread with a ton of pics in it.

Don't think of a fwi as trying to gain power, think of it more of a stepping stone to other mods that will all add up to a very noticeable difference.

Ditto, and more noise It's more of a butt dyno mod. The extra engine noise and S/C whine make it seem faster, but the gains are quite minimal, however, it will help later on down the road when more mods are thrown into the mix.

Just wanted to know if anyone has seen gains and I am not supercharged.

i knew you weren't sc'd since whats in this section anyways

however it will be a placebo mod. your intake will sound louder and coupled with an exhaust you will feel the power increase

on my truck that is heavily modded up until the point of a cam, i noticed the intake and exhaust only until after i had a tune done. then it went from a truck made only to tow, to a truck that will eat tires and damn near drift within 5 mins w/ power tuner

Haha, I don't read sections anymore. I play fast and loose with my posting

I love the way intakes sound on a N/A 3800 though. Sounds like a hurricane under the hood especially on open loop operation.

i can vouch for this^^ Mine isnt that loud with a 3 inch, but we put a 3.5 almost on the throtlle body of a friends grand am, and it sounds like a total beast when he gets on it.

I'll have to make a video/sound clip of the one on the girlfriend's car. It seriously just sounds nuts. Makes a ton of noise as soon as you get on it, quiets down at about 3k-5k, then makes the coolest whistling noise as soon as you start to let off.

I hate those engines with a passion but they sound quite nice.

throw a open cone on it and be done with it

would love to hear it but I probably would actually feel a little something?

With the airbox off on a 3800, the intake is like a vaccum cleaner.
