Default New inlet hat is in

Kinda.... My car was sucking the stock ATI filter shut so I usually run around on a turbo grate (weekend driver) but it made me un-easy. I got this for a little more peace of mind. I measured and it should fit without a problem. I'll still take it off for the track, but I can at least ditch the poor excuse for inlet piping from ProCharger.

Interesting.. I'd like to see pics of it mounted once ya get a photo op. Also, let us know how much boost it restricts. Seems kinda small, but if it works better than the truck inlet hat, I may have to switch to one of these. Next time you are in tulsa, let me know, and we can put my truck inlet hat on your car and compare if ya want

Sounds like a plan! It is definitely smaller, but it also lets the blower suck in the air all around opposed to sucking it down a channel. Just an experiment, so we'll see how it goes. I could make a drive to T-town sometime, that'd be cool. Is there a street scene up there at all?

There is usually lots of cars that cruise up and down memorial from 61st-41st typically on the weekends. Its been quite a while since I've ventured out there since I really haven't had my car running 100%. But there shouldn't be too much trouble finding some decent races while out and about on a weekend night.

Sounds like a plan! May have to head that way before the weather turns to crap.
