Just installed today, and sending along a pic. Their website should be listing it soon. So far it seems ok, will have to drive it a few more miles to let the brain short out the adjustments. My worst fear was the intake noise and it does sound different (better) but not annoying. I will report on mpg's soon, stock I've been getting 20.6 mixed city/hwy. Sorry for the quality of the pic, Spectre will have some good ones posted soon.

Is this oiled cotton?

I'm impressed, looks great and I hope the price is ok. I also saw what looked like a oil breather filter?? I have not seen one of those. I'm looking forward to your feed back. ED B

Update, I have placed my order for the cold air intake from Spectra, or I should say there supplier with the assistance of Shaun, ( Thanks Shaun for your help and the part numbers), I will assemble when it arrives next week and this is a great price to. Will post my comments as time goes by. I have had my Chip in for about two weeks, and I can say pedal responce is great, performance has been enhanced. Mileage I cann't say has been changed, still on the same tank and that's positive. I do expect mileage has inproved, I'm at 375 miles and just about at a quarter tank. I will run another through before I will let everybody know the figures, however I can say the onboard computer says I'm doing 18 MPG currently and that's all city driving about 18 miles a day. Once I assemble the cold air intake, my next project will be the exhaust, still not sure which is the best system, but I will post and advise. I'm have fun with my Nitro and and other's are noticing it. I have never had so many people ask "who makes it" and what is it. I feel there is interest among many.

Call Shaun at Spectre and maybe you can figure how to post his pics on the forum as well as explanations on the install and filter materials.
909 459-9684 also forum member sert4. Thanks, Lou

hey guys its shaun, i did the install.

the filter is a pre-oiled cotton filter. flow rates are over 800cfm which is more than what these motors need.

Question on parts?

The couplers, where can I get so and what assortment on angles and size are there? I am going to fabricate a ram air system for the Nitro's sonn and am looking for parts.

 

[Quiet Lunatic]

nice work there....id be interested in doing that...let us know if there is any difference in power and fuel after a week or so.

what was the cost to do this?

 

[grandpadoc]

Had it done at the main facility, don't think they retail there. Go to their website for dealer info or order direct from the site.

where are you located and i can point you in the right direction.

[sert4]

at high retail you would pay about $143.00 for this intake, you can probably pick this up for about $10 cheaper from your local auto parts store or through summit or jegs.

...so far after two days of city/highway driving, the mpg's went up 1.3. Its hard to tell about the power, but I had a flat spot in the mid range that is gone. Maybe after Bonniville I'll take it back to Spectre for a stock vs dyno hp test. Right now they are busy getting ready for the big event. I saw the worlds fastest Camero, a streamliner, and a Farrari with a 200K engine being prepaired. These guys are very serious about their business.
