Prototype intake

[factorydusa]

FactoryD Dual intake is nearly completed!

For those who want K&N large filter kits, we are doing that as well in the next few days.

Pending testing and tuning on the dyno, we'll release numbers and make sure we maximize every HP we can get. We do not sell it until the numbers prove it!


Factory D appreciates your input!

Good or bad let's hear it so we can all get something we want!

DYNO day is tomorrow on the DUAL intake/ Single Filter kit on the 2.7 300!

I'll post up scanned sheets as soon as possible with some hopeful video runs!

[NC-SXT]

I hope your results are more promising than with our GIFO 1,2,3,4 etc

[Rev.Hammer]

Indeed!!! So is this a first iteration or ...?

[factorydusa]

GIFO? I am not familiar with this one

[l1tech]

So what where the results of the dyno runs?

[factorydusa]

I fouled my plugs out with the one run showing a gain of 7.4 hps

We couldnt switch out the plugs until today so we are re running Weds with heatshield and a fresh tune up to verify numbers *(we will post here with scanned sheet)

[Rev.Hammer]

I like the concept but it definitely needs cosmetic work!!

[l1tech]

How did you manage to foul the plugs???

[factorydusa]

my car already has 40k on it and was starting to show signs of needing the tune up - When taking the car out to Dyno balls to the wall, the car showed on the computer performance problems so we check everything.... Not the intakes fault, just mine!

[boggart]

but doesn't the V6 have 100000 mile plugs?

[l1tech]

If you did indeed foul the plugs then you have something other than worn spark plugs going on. While I don't recommend leaving plugs in 100k,with only 40k on your motor there shouldn't have been any issues with the plugs, unless there is a problem somewhere else, and if there is a problem elsewhere than your baseline numbers will be off. Now you fix the other problems, add the intake and run it on the dyno again, whose to say that the added power, if any, is from the intake. If I sound skeptical it's because I am, in the G.I.F.O. all claims of added horsepower were pretty much squashed.

One thing to note is that the GIFO was done ONLY on the Hemi cars. It did NOT test the V6 cars at all. They are different engines with different inductions. The GIFO results have absolutely no bearing on the results of CAI performance on an SE or SXT.

I hate to say this but the V6 cars have the same troublesome "Speed Density" Engine management systems as the v8s. It's a Chrysler's way of saving a little cash on the cars. No expensive MAF's on our LXs.

[boggart]

I agree with that, but they don't have the same intake. And, the GIFO DID show performance improvements from the CAI after exhaust and headers if I remember correctly.

Regardless of what the GIFO results are, my SXT Magnum runs better, and gets better MPG with my Aircharger. Does it have more horsepower? Dunno and don't care since it runs better and gets better MPG.
