Question SLP Flowpac vs. chris1313

When i first bought my car i wasted my money on SLP's flowpac i wouldnt have paid what i did for it knowing what i know now lol. I was wondering if it would be worth the $200 to switch to chris1313's ram air with ac cause i want to keep my ac? Can anybody tell me if it would be worth it to switch or should i just keep the SLP cai?

I dont think it is. The lid works fine, the bellow is prob not going to do anything but the cai is gunna be the same as any other ac accommodating unit more or less IMO.. If I had a choice, the 1313 but to bother switching them out..only unless I was !ac..

Its a ram air duct that directs air right up into your air lid from underneath. Chris1313 makes em and its an awesome product that works. Try a search youll find some info.

I would just send chrs1313 a pm. He is a really stand up guy. I live about a half hour away from him and he has gone out of his way to help me multiple times with my car\combo. His intake is top notch, and has real world data to back up the gains\cost. The guy knows his stuff. He is a airflow engineer by day...
