Cobras good, I kinda wish I would of kept mine, Get a nice port and polish job and that intake will be enough for what you need.

Hey Swid, do you know if the RPM 2 Upper intake will work on the regular RPM lower?

No the RPM Upper will but the RPM2 will not.... hahah I already checked! Just take the Performer in a get a port & Polish job the lower is where they are restricted, but being as you are in Cali you are limited with emmisions right off the bat which sucks! I and porting & Polishing mine right now. (What a **** sucker to do!)

I would go w/ a RPM II. I know a couple people who have them and love them. They look really good too if that matters to you.

What's the combo? Switching to a bigger intake may pick up a few hp up top but cost all kinds of torque down low. You may get a better dyno sheet and a slower ET. I made >600rwhp through a regular Performer RPM @ only 13psi.
