Im just curious to know what would be better for my suba? i was thinking about getting a Turbonator and a K&N High Air Flow Filter. Instead of a Cold Air Intake. Any suggestions would be helpful.

i havent really heard of anyone getting one of those things. stick to your stock box, get a perrin/k&n hi flow filter, or even get the SPT intake or K&N Typhoon. . .

turbonator?

heck, i just want one now just to say i have a TURBONATOR

how about some info on this brand/product?

Yeah its a vortec cylinder that you insert in the air intake hose to increase a gain of 2-5 hp gain. That and a K&N high flow filter should work good together! also a lot chaper the getting a CAI. After all the negative response ive heard of getting a Intake hurting low end torque.

hahahahahhahahahahahhahahah

^ u know why.

The Turbonator is one of those snake oil-type of devices, kinda like attaching magnets to your fuel line to improve fuel economy. I believe Consumer Reports tested one of those and gave it a big thumbs down. I would suggest getting a RalliTEK high-flow intake elbow and AVO reusable panel filter instead.

I'm not terribly happy with the K&N air filter. It doesn't have a rigid outer frame like the stock filter, and installation requires pulling the entire air box out of the car. Not only is that a PITA, but at one point someone at the dealer opened the case to peek at the filter (even though I had the "Touch this filter and die!" sticker in place), and they cracked the lower half of my air cleaner at the slots trying to reassemble it incorrectly.

hilarious, ive got a bridge for sale =)

Funny, this looks like the same Intake Elbow that GP Moto has been selling for awhile. I guess people are copying their design as their own now.

I'm not sure if it's different, but on my 07 I just unclipped the top and pulled out the oem and slid in the K&N.

Why would you put a turbonator on a car with a turbo?

The better question is "Why would you put a turbonator on a car?"

I think the 06/07 air cleaner differs from the 04/05 air cleaner, just like the TMIC differs between the two year groups.
