What have you guys found to be the best intake for the 3800 Series III

I have a 2006 base Grand Prix, needs a new air filter, so might as well upgrade now

I personally don't think there is much of a difference performance wise between the different brands. I have a K&N in mine. Just look at how much you want to spend and go with one that will look good under your hood.Just my opinion.

for a N/A gp the drop in K&N air filter in your stock air box will be fine, if I were to do things over again thats all I would use

I have a K&N drop in on mine. Seems to work pretty well. Its a little louder sucking air then a paper filter not much but noticeable at WOT.

I have a drop in in the Impala, works pretty well. Kinda noticeable at wot. I have a wizair in the GTP, which looks great, sounds great, and performs great, but I can't really vouch for how well it works on n/a cars.

I had the Wizaired on my GT. It looked and sounded great, but I can't say I noticed a difference in performance. My butt-dyno may be out of cal, though.

IMO, I'd avoid fender well intakes. I just recently saw someone (GTI, not GP) drive through a puddle (not flooding, just a deep puddle) after about 1/2 - 1 hour of rain and suck a lot of water into his engine.

it sucks when you live in florida and rock a fwi

i had to do a dance on the road to avoid puddles

_________________

usually I prefer a sealed CAI like the wizair and if your decently handy you can make a good one from Lexan or some aluminum pretty quick. I think I did a whole box and filter for one of my past cars for around 90 bucks, probably cheaper when you consider that I probably only used half the sheet of Lexan.

Mine sits right behind my headlight, in the fender...
I think it's just as high as it was when it was in the stock air-box...
I think you are all just, "doing it wrong"... lol

Same here. Sucks with puddles, but also why I always have a screwdriver handy

wiz air i just dont like the bellow i went through three of them already. and the k&N filter works great but u will have to clean your maf sensor often because of the oil that is on the filter. try and find a good dry filter.

Home made fender wall intake ..... Got to love it!

Personally, with all the aftermarket intakes. You're really just paying for the name. All have the same or about the same effect. I made mine with $70.. The K&N filter being the most expensive piece. If you're looking to save a buck than it's definately the route to go

Unless your heavily modded...I run a open cone. When your making a lot more power than stock you can talk about ambient temps all day and I'll still keep my open cone because intake placement doesn't make a shits lick of difference.

I actually wasn't refering to temps. I was under the impression that he was going to just unplug the IAT sensor and just run the cone right on the TB.
