No its for the 05/06 3V 4.6L They are just saying they liked DeMolets work so much on the 03 cobra that they brought him back to work on the 05/06 CAI.
Read the article I linked to and you will see the tests are for the 05/06

Sweet. As much as I like my GM V8, Ford's firing order makes a nicer rumble then mine ever will.
QFT. But nothing sounds as good as an Old Pushrod V8....... The sound the S/D OHC motor makes is nowhere near as nice as the pushrod motors.

how much you want for the 5.0?
I don't beleive you got any significant performance increase out of a cold air kit.

Probally upwards of $5k. It has alot of work done to it, in pretty good shape. I can provide pictures/details should yu like.

Im talking about the emiisions filter that keeps the unburnt gas from coming back out of the cyclinder when you shut the car off, it keeps the fumes trapped in the air tube and burns them up when the car is started.
yeah, I bet the performance tune adds 29 and the SRI adds 1
SRI's can be very pointless depending on where you are getting the air from.
CAI ~= SRI
CAI can actually yield some horsepower, SRI's usually dont far enough away from the engine bay to get cold erair.
There are many MAGAZINES = selling
There are many SHOPS = selling
You think they might have a reason for saying its good? lol
Whatever, Im not trying to prove anything to anyone...... Im was just showing off a really nice product I got today, and one that works good.
This post is alot better than the other stupid threads on AT about some moron having GF problems, or other stupid stuff......
When my friend gets his dyno setup. Ill take my car their and do several runs in each config. (Stock Intake/Stock Tune, CAI/Stock Tune, Stock Intake/Tune, CAI/Tune) To show the power gain for each product seperately, and then togahter, along with a base to compare by......
Its not just the magazine I am basing this off of. It is alot of individuals that have purchased this item and had their car dyno'ed and got similar results that the magazine got. The article from the magazine was easier to link to....
And the magazine is not trying to sell anything in particualr, because all of the intakes/tunes perform withen 5 hp of each other...

I have no problems with the thread Im just sticking e-nose into your business and BS'ing the little I know about cars and performance .
I do like the sound the SRI adds.... but I read earlier you were calling it a CAI... I understand there might be no room to actually snake a REAL CAI, but that thing really looks like an SRI, and just based on the design, even if lets the car breathe better, the air coming into it wont be Colder since it is in the engine bay, the way a CAI would be, right?
It would be cool if you had a chunk of change to blow on 2 dynos, one with the intake and one without, with everything else left the same. At least that way if you posted the #'s no one could call BS, and we would all have a lot more facts to work with
I would guess maybe 5hp out of it, maybe 10 max. But then thats a guess because Im not as familiar with V8 NA potential.
Edit: Sweet! your friend is setting up a dyno. Drop me a PM if you think about it when you post the results, Im curious.

Well with the 05/06 there is not place for a "Real" CAI as you people are calling it. In most cases the Charge air is only 10 degrees above the ambient air. So if its 90 degrees out, you will have 100 degree air going into your car.... Much better than just air from an open engine bay.... But the demolet kit is built thicker than the kit I am basing this charge temp off of. I will try to find a way to measure the air charge temp during real driving temps, compared to underhood temps, and outside temps.
I can have as many dyno runs as I want. I have a friend who just bought a wheel dyno, so I can talk him into letting me do it no problem.
I have no doubts about the 25-30hp claim/dyno results because you can't feel 5-10hp, you can feel 30rwhp.

Sent you a PM, but if anyone else is interested it came from John DeMolet, who owns DeMolet Automotive, LLC. http://www.tunableinduction.com/

That may not be the case...while the air certainly isn't "cold", the bigger, less restrictive intake could make a difference in engines that have trouble breathing. I'm not sure if the Mustang engine is one of those, but if it is, I have no doubt that the intake+a good tuneup could yield 30hp with some luck (he never claimed "everyone" gets 30hp, remember, and 30hp isn't a huge percentage of the total horsepower of the car).
I know that a less restrictive intake and exhaust can net 5-10 hp in the mk1 MR2...and that's on a ~105hp engine...
Yea 30rwhp on a 300 BHP engine, is less that a 10% increase at the wheels. ITs not a HUGE increase but for just a tune/intake it is.
As I stated in an earlier post, the air charge temp is 10 degrees or less than the ambiant air....
The intake you are talking about on the MR2 is without a performance tune designed for the intake also. This tune on this CAI is done by SCT the man. of the tuner, it was designed especially for the make/slow of this specific CAI.
Josh
Nice looking intake! Most tuners put open element cone intakes into the dyno's fault tolerance variables. At least the ones I've delt with.
It's a fine intake even if the real world gain is less than 2hp!
Hope to see the pics of the entire car

Gotta get it cleaned up first
..... I hit about 50000000 bugs on the way to his shop to buy this and have it installed... And hit just as many coming back.... Stupid country roads... But hey it made for nice driving to test out the new intake/tune. TRENDING THREADS
