i have HEARD that the BBK is not as good as many intakes. get a cheaper one that does as good of a job. the gt40 is a great intake (im bias tho. hahaha) cobra, i think the performer one from eddlebrock is good also. i personally like the ford products because if you need any gasket or any other thing like that, usually autozone will stock them.

Dude that dynoed and tuned my car said he did a flow test on some intakes and said the new BBK one was pretty sorry. He said the GT40 was good and any of the Edelbrocks, I run an Edelbrock Performer RPM with a Professional Products 70mm throttle body and egr spacer, so far so good for me!!

i am partial to holly edelbrock and trickflow because at least when you bolt on one of there intakes you know your going to see a descent gain as compared to some of the others.

i have only used the trickflow track heat and now have the r series but haven't see what it can do yet

The only good thing I've heard about the BBK intake is that it looks cool, which is still opinion. Everything else seems to suck.
