Velocity Stack vs Aftermarket Intake

[Red Square]

Here are some pics of my intake setup:

Heres my write up: Velocity Stack

1. Velocity stacks are bad ass
2. Cheaper than most intakes
3. Up to 17.5% more air, depending on the size (velocity stack vs intake without filter)
4. Come in different sizes
5. Looks fcking hardcore
6. And intakes are for LiTtLe GiRls

My favorite part about velocity stacks is the wonderful sludge that you get when mix dust/dirt and fuel.
Air filters are weak becuase they are for people who drive their cars.

[S14DB]

Yet you still have a gay ass MAF.

[Red Square]

your words dont hurt me.... my MAF is a sexy beast.

[Phlip]

I personally like the idea of air filtration, lending itself to daily driveability

Don't many intakes incorporate a velocity stack? i.e Stillen and Apex'i.

[Phlip]

But for this to be true, where did those calculations come from?

[Red Square]

"Don't many intakes incorporate a velocity stack? i.e Stillen and Apex'i."

^ ^yes some do, but they are small

[Phlip]

^^^ But don't EFFECTIVE intakes include FILTERS? I could care a shitload less if it flows more, but doesn't have a filter, I need utility and practicality

[kandyflip445]

Actually I have a Stillen velocity stack that came with the car. And it's as big as yours. lol Just not as shiny.

EDIT: And you can mount a filter to it. :Owned:

i am going to rip open a bag of powdery concrete mixture infrotn of your car on the highway.

Hah, that made my day, but I guess it just started.

[Johny5]

ah, push-thru maf is for weiners, convert to blow-thru then step up you oldass grandpa. that or eliminate the maf then step up. you're talking about velocity stack increasing airflow then sticking a maf with a filter net and a plastic rod running down the middle. if we're talking about PRECISE flow then you've done nothing more than added show car appeal, congrats. i run blow-thru maf and nothing but a mesh screen on my compressor face, you don't see me making threads.

[eyustfu]

or how about a bag of sugar?

What's with your strut tower?

Pink!!!

[s0ldats]

hahahahahahahahaha nice pic omg hahahaha


GAME ON!!!

[Red Square]

that right biatch.... custom

[Flybert]

Imagine running that POS at the track. Velocity stack = motor hating life

[Johny5]

thats like 1/2 these peoples points. the most action that velocity stack sees is the california highways hahahahaha.

[NervGS]

I'm suprised I didn't see anything about Bernoulli's principle in here by the thread starter.

Then again, this is Zilvia...

[ALTRNTV]

This thread is funny. The guy tries to post pics of his "intake" and gets flamed on every post.

[FaLKoN240]

Aw man, this thread is HARSH. Ya'll are HELLA mean. That looks nice, but imma have to agree, not practical for DD.

[SochBAT]

I bet you can suck dogs up with that velo stack! Im happy with my air filter. To each his own.

Whats your Dirt/Fuel ratio?

[Flybert]

Whats your Dirt/Fuel ratio?

Naw dude, it's a Dirt/Air ratio. Newb.

I'm not sure if he has a wideband dirt sensor but my guess is around a 12:1 dirt:air ratio.

[SochBAT]

Look at my setup! I copied yours.


But my filter is your best friend.

HAIL GAY SPONGEBOB!

[Red Square]

^his nose is too big and you forgot his red tie

[i8yourfwd]

lmao.. this thread is awesome.. But yeah like everyone said.. that stack will put your motor through hell. And if it goes bad, there goes all that money you spent on it. :|

LMAO WTF he looks like pinocchio

[Johny5]

no i'm not saying the motor will go bad, the turbo compressors gonna eat shit, get chipped, then send its crap through the motor. dunno if that will kill the motor, but overtime in a severe case it can scar your walls causing compression leak. all because you wanted a shiney funnel.

[blu808]

Ok props on the added hp. However the tradeoff is not that great.

I would rather have a motor that last for daily driving, track events, and whatever the road throws at it, instead of a motor that has a whole 10hp more untill you go off track for the first time, and goes poo.
Imo.

he said, hes prepared!!! thats why spongebob is there!! :mepoke: haha. NICE PIC sochbat. someone should make spongebob filters. im down for one!

[chlatboy]

Looks nice, just dont drive the car.

[eyustfu]

just let him find out the hardway

[neilsan]

just stretch a womans stocking over it, thatll filter plenty

[Red Square]

man, you guys think im crazy uh..... i was just playin. i dont realy run it open end on socal roads. i have 2 layers of filtration, one metal noodle strainer and one micro screen sheet. i just took it out for that pic.


all you hater crack me up...


anyways here my newest set up. puts all you mother fckers to shame.....
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v384/ildrifto/cars/pic2.jpg

note: that is not my Sponge Bob. uumm i found it in my little bothers room. hence, i have no relationship with collecting soft, cuddley, stuff animals.

[ALTRNTV]

Hahahahaha ^

Good one.

[420sx]

hahah what a fag. velocity stack makes you drift better too i bet. el dorifto or whatthefuckever u call yourself. poser. i wander why serious cars and daily driven ones as well do have air filtration.... hmmmm..... yea. who needs an intake.... its for posers, right?

rice it like its hot.

[Red Square]

^ yes in deed ...pickle kisser

[ALTRNTV]

Zilvia is a harsh place..

but I love it.

Leave the guy alone. heh

[420sx]

fuck that. i like pickles with my vodka. bitch

[S14DB]

I would love for you too have you oil tested and see how high your particulate count is.

[HyperTek]

i wonder how many of u guys here are running gay ass 3 inch filter adapters... soo restrictive and nasty setup imo..

Heres this for a comparison..
K&N Engineering's FIPK kit on my s13..
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/streetphase/100_0592.jpg
Uses a big ass filter... K&N designs thier kits for maximum possible gain, otherwise they wont bother making a intake or call it an FIPK* (this series out of all thier intakes prove the most gain)

JWT Pop Charger intake on my Z32 maf (all JWT pop chargers are simular tho)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/streetphase/100_0591.jpg
I would think this one would be a winner..

Both use huge filters, same size and diameter...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/streetphase/intake.jpg

Throw into the mix, a super bad ass $13.99 system
http://www.procarparts.com/products/NIS-UNI-XXXX-BUXX-XXXX-FADX.JPG
I dont trust these things.. and besides.. id hate to get a BAR ref ticket becuase of a ~$20 intake.. lol

I tried one of those cheap adapter intakes in my car, and it actually was bogging out etc.. since its a more restrictive flow, and blocks out some of the maf.. besides, my computer tuned itself for the more air flow intake of the k&n..

[S14DB]

I really want to see a Particle Count Test with this.

http://www.blackstone-labs.com/all_about_particle_counts.html

[kandyflip445]

I have one like the second pic in Hypertek's post.

[SochBAT]

I think he actually went out and bought it to be cool with his picture.

Brand new spongebob square penis with tags!

Traditional filters > velo stacks!

[Red Square]

^ im a baller biotch

HyperTek... you + sand storm + velocity stack = KAboob

hows your car havent seen it more than a year.
