Clueless - Air Induction
Alright, I need a good boost to my car and everybody seems to like induction kits...well, I know jack about 'em. Here is what I am looking at. These are "kits" I found online.
Kit #1 $580.00
Trueflow intake plenum
C&L 80mm or 85mm Mass-Air kit
Trueflow inlet pipe
And choice of either Accufab 70mm or 75mm throttle body (polished) or BBK 75mm throttle body
Kit #2 $525.00
Straight Shot Air Induction with billet 80mm or 85mm MAF
C&L Trueflow Intake Plenum
And choice of either Accufab 70mm or 75mm throttle body (polished) or BBK 75mm throttle body
Kit #3 $580.00
Straight Shot Air Induction with billet 80mm or 85mm MAF
AccuFab Air Intake Plenum (polished)
And choice of Accufab 70mm or 75mm throttle body
I have no idea. Money is not so much an obstacle, I just don't know which is the better deal. I've heard iffy stuff on C&L, MAF, whatever. I guess I'm kinda leaning towards kit #3. Recommendations?
Here's what I have right now.
03 GT - 2" lowering kit, SLP Loudmouth exhaust, 4.11 gears, Diablosport Predator tune, K&N Air filter, steeda Tri-X shifter

RE: Clueless - Air Induction
Go to http://www.demolet.com. Click on the information page, get the *special* complete #4 kit with Pro-M MAF ($280 delivered). Find out if this has the throttle body pipe, if not, get it from this site ($65 delivered). Then get an Accufab Throttle Body (75mm) and a plenum. Found both at http://www.rpmoutlet.com/newv8cm.htm ($415.00 w/accufab plenum or $325.00 w/C&L Plenum). But I suggest searching for a better price. It wouldn't hurt to check out this as well: http://www.steeda.com/store/-catalog/IntakeSpacer.htm ($69.95). There are a couple of specials when ordering the CAI from demolet, ($15) for carbon fiber dress up(see ordering page), and ($16) for a set of NGK iridium spark plugs (see specifications page). These are good deals to grab while you are shopping.
With this set up, you should really feel a difference.

Planning on supercharging her, just wanted to throw some more mods on first. Next year i want to throw on SLP headers/X-pipe. Soon, as in now, I want to throw on a induction kit and probably pulleys. THEN I'll get maybe a procharger. I want to try hard as I can to get my car pushing damn near 500 hp.

You said pulleys then supercharger later. You didn't say anything about underdrive pulleys in your first post. I take it that is what you are talking about though. If you are gonna supercharge your car in the near future you don't want to put underdrive pully set on the car. The smaller crank pully will throw your boost off because it will not be spinning the speed that the pully is made for. You will still be making boost just not as much as the set up should be making. Just some info for ya to think about.
You can always put a smaller blower pulley on too but then you run into belt slippage if you get too small of a pulley. IMO underdrive pulleys are good yea but you dont want them if you are gonna supercharge later on down the road.
