MY new PRM Intake...

well i finally got it in.. got this from gerry creator of jetstream intake system..about a month ago but didnt have a chance to put it on till today..all due to toyota had to fix some idling issue that i had..the main reason i got this is to due local access and unique design..believe me this thing did not disappoint me once i saw it live...anyways here's my take on this..

*sleek design definitely original..talking about the reverse cone on the tube.

*short ram cold air intake..gerry found a spot on that corner where for this intake to pull some cold air. proven after about an hour drive mid pipe remain cool to the touch but everything else is warm including the walls on the battery.

*half usa made half canadian. rubber tubes and i believe oiled filter itself is made in usa and pipe and filter cover is canadian based. unfortunetely what they are made of only PRM can tell you..

*took about 25 minutes to install including unstalling stock box. final setup is sturdy no brackets needed the whole piece is held by the rubber tube at the end right by the intake manifold..

on the road: bare in mind i got k&n filter on stock box to compare this to.

*took it to 85 km/hr playin between 2nd and 3rd gear. pull was great once i hit 3500revs and up..

*sound is not too far from my stock box w/ K&n filter on it although i dont have the tube running on the stock box. on the prm intake there is still an added rev noise once you stomp on the gas.

*so far overall very happy with this intake..no need to reset ecu , no cel issue either , i had the rev drop to 450-500 rpm at the beginning on idle but after driving its back to normal.

*just took this on the highway and all i can say is WOW!! the grunt and pick up is actually there..."brisky" is the word downshifting ,upshifting and all i can say is excellent choice of an intake no regrets... i guess the straight pipe helped a lot compare to stock box w/ K&n on it..
