I Fitted My New Ss Inductions " Growler" Cai Today

[the phantom]

I just fitted the SS inductions cold air intake today, it is the growler one that replaces the whole airbox and has the pod filter inside it they say u can expect up to 16rwkw from this kit on an XR6T and I recon with a tune that would probably be the case. The car rev's way faster and has heaps more down low allready and it sounds tuff as!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! top product.

here's the write up from there web site and the pics off there site, Ill get some pics up of my engine bay soon.

Growler® Cold Air Induction

The GROWLER® system replaces the factory airbox altogether and is designed to maximize air flow and to provide a shorter path to the throttle body. This delivers a much faster and smoother flow than the standard air box and makes use of our superior Big Mouth® inverted cone high performance filter. The factory induction can also be connected to the Growler®. A unique SS Inductions' aluminium air scoop is included as part of the kit to increase the ramming effect at highway speed through the opening of the factory induction. A special cap is provided for use when the factory induction is not required.

With a great induction growl, expect to gain up to 16kw at the rear wheels (turbo models), significantly increased torque and throttle response and better fuel economy.

The five-part kit consists of plastic pod-style airbox with lid, the Big Mouth® pod filter, standard induction cap and the unique SS Inductions' aluminium air scoop. RRP $599.00.

Look forward to seeing the actual results....

The results I get on my next tune wont realy show the true gain from the CAI because I am fitting the exhaust, custom cooler and aftermarket ECU including injectors etc, so the tune will be for all that. but I might even aske them to do a power run just to see what exactly it did for me.

$600 for nothing but hype.... Sorry but it's not worth the money. Specially when you can get the same results from something similar for around $60.

In a way I even agree with you I have built alot of VL turbo's and allways just had the poddy hanging of the 35/40 on them but you just get defected, when I bought this car I decided I would do as much as I could to keep the car from being an EPA magnet, I just CBF with defects etc anymore and I think this product gives you the power gain and looks pretty much stock to the cops. that's how I ended up deciding it was worth the money.

The 60 dollar cold air intake is less noticeable than what you just got ripped for....

[the phantom]

what $60 intake are you guys talking about because If its that good I would use it for sure, is it just a poddy or a K&N pannel or what because I dont see what else you would get for $60

Ok I see I just had a look at those threads and I see that there are mixed opinions about the growler kit, some say "waste of money" and some say they are worth the money, but it would seem no one is denieing that they actualy work. Since I already bought and fitted the thing and I can already feel power gains from it Im still happy. Cheers for the thoughts but Istill think there a good product if you have the spare $$$ sitting around.

a voted list of things not to do would be handy.... but might possibly upset a few sponsors...
