    Within the next couple months I'll be ready to add a little more power!! (staying N/A) I REALLY WANT Cam's Twin CAI unit......BAD!!! But for about $200 less, I can get a JLT 4" Carbon Fiber CAI AND an Arrington cast 90mmTB from BMC. What the hell is a brotha to do?? My ultimate goal would be to get the CTP twins, and the 90mmTB, but that's not gonna happen right now. Both will yied a pretty nice addition of power and SOTP feel. What would you guys do?????? :thanks:

    Wait and get CTP dual with 90mm TB...Cam is worth the $200.00...don't forget to mill and port match your manifold...Also, i doubt you will have a significant SOTP feel from it. Dude you're already producing gobbs of power, a 20+whp increase won't really be felt much...Is it really worth the coin? Only you can decide...I say spray dat BI-ATCH!

    A) My extrude honed intake manifold is already port matched to the 90mmTB.
    B) I know I'll have to retune no matter what I do.
    C) You jackasses are no help!! You're all telling me to do what I DON'T have the coin for now!!!! lol. Mind you, I've got about $600 in work coming from Jina's Embroidery. One thing at a time.....

    What I may do, is the JLT & 90mmTB for now. And then in April (which is bonus time & big mods) get the CTP twins in replacement of the JLT. Thoughts??

    Kyle, you don't think I'll really notice a 15hp increase????

    Good point. I have the oldschool K&N 63 series CAI. Good point. I may just get the 90mmTB with a 3.5" reducer, and wait for the CTP twins in the spring.

    If I did this, do you guys think I'd be okay to just go into "quick adjust" on my predator, and add about 5% fuel to my current tune. Or do you think I'll need to retune in general??

    HUH??? :)

    No shit. Anyone who thinks their paint is flawless (like I did on my Charger) needs to do it. Even the most perfect paintjobs can benefit from a quick paint correction. I could tell a difference immediately. She just shines different now. UNBELIEVABLE. I'm not as good as you, but with some more practice, I'll get there. :D

    Well sorry boss, but really, you'de be hard pressed to feel double that at this point....The upside is the badazz looks the dual CTP intakes commands, plus you will know you've made an improvement, felt or not....Justification is in the eye of the beholder...Step up to the next level, spray or F/I.

    The only reason I won't spray or do a blower, is because I've had HELL to this point, just getting it where I want it N/A!!!!!!! My car has been "down" more than I've driven it, and I just want to DRRRRIIIIIIIVVE the piss out of it right now. And honestly, it's a cold day in hell when all these "blown" guys are actually getting to drive their sleds. I WANT TO ENJOY MY CAR right now, not take another 9 months trying to get it running right......I've already been there, and don't want to do it again anytime soon.
    JLT because it's beautiful, and has a 4" inlet to match the TB. PM me with an explanation of what you further mean by your latter comment........?????
