Default My new Intake
The production sample came in was test fitted and installed on my STS-V. I plan to take the car to run it on the dyno to get final numbers.

That looks great. Do you have a boost gauge? I know that when I installed the UPR intake tube on my Vortech I picked up 2 psi.

I can really hear the supercharger whine when I accelerate hard. Just driving around town the whine is not much louder than stock.

I had to pull the pictures at the manufacturer's request. There are some technology they don't want their competitors to copy until the intake is in full production. I do have an appointment at Superior Automotive in Anahiem 9am to run the car on the dynojet with both the stock and tuned PCM. Also I have an appointment with my tuner, Church Automotive Thursday morning to run the car on the dynapak with the tuned PCM. I just want to make sure that I am not running too lean and verify how much more power I am producing.

The power seemed low when I ran the car on the dynojet. I took the car over to Church Automotive and figured out that the pump for the intercooler is not working causing the air going into the engine be sky high. Taking the car over to the dealer for warranty repair.

Bummer

I already had the intercooler pump go out on the Cobra once at 22k miles. Mine is a Bosch unit, who makes yours?
