3800 DHP PCM

[Aircal]

Everyone says you should have a smaller pully and a CAI before getting a PCM, would a drop in filter work? What real difference is there between the two. Also my cold air box has a tube that leads into the fenderwell. For some reason I don't remember seeing others like that, or am I just overtired again? And if so why would doing the home depo type fenderwell with cone make a big difference?

there both really efficient i kno a few people that have the fender well but thing is the cone gets dirty faster. Otherwise there are types like wizair and thrasher that are right behind ur headlight for when u take it out at the track so it all depends on ur choice. as for the dhp i had a smaller pulley and intake b 4 i retuned my pcm.

gut your airbox.....seems to be the same effect as the wizair but for 200$ less

thats how most all airboxes on all vehicles are......just fyi. i added a dhp before my 3.4 and it was fine. ran with a 3.8 for a week or so. that was with exhaust, cai, 180 stat and dhp

it takes some work and a little money but you can get close to it, ive had a thrasher, a gutted box and HOT cone intake...adding insulating to a stock box and gutting it.. correctly will give you iat's pretty close to a stock thrasher and adding insulation to a thrasher will give you close to ambiant temps if you put the iat in the box not in the tubing, i used zzp tubing and a thrasher(wrapped like a drunkin chimp as vdan said) and it worked as good as you would ever want a intake to be

It's not even so much the stock box that's restrictive but also the f duct. If you have $60.00 you can buy some flexible hosing and a 9" filter that will outperform a modified stock airbox any day of the week.

....i was just saying that the airbox can be gutted for free........i know the CAIs will work better.......they are designed for it.......but when your air intake has a hole over 2 times the size it origionally was........all the way through......it works......and it works fine..........so you can use the gutted airbox with the DHP......plus you dont have to worry about illinois weather fucking up your FWI filter.......
