Has anyone fitted a JWT cold air intake?

I'm thinking about getting one of them or something similar and wondered how good and how noisy they actually are.

If anyone has one fitted or knows someone who has one fitted, I'd love to hear what you think.

Cheers,

I've one and I've to say that it sounds great. In normal daily driving you can hardly tell it's there, but at WOT above 3000rpm it sounds great. I'm not sure if it has given me any more power, but it's worth it for the sound alone.

EDIT: I've just noticed that you are from Gold Coast, I travel there quiet often and I'm going to be there in around 2 months. If you are in no hurry you can take a look at it then. By the way, how are your Konis?

Thanks guys,

Nuff, the Konis are good - I'm still playing around with the best adjustment setings for them but the harshness has gone right out of the ride and the bouncing is gone. I took the car for a run up some of my favourite mountain roads last week and it was much more compliant - handled mid corner bumps much better than the OE dampers.

I'm very happy with them.

I think when I'm on the Gold Coast next time, we should go for a spin. I love the roads there, by the way I've lived there for 9 years. Also where on the coast are you located? I always stay in southport.

Yep - you're on, be good to have a proper look at some of the stuff that you have on your car - pretty solid list.

I work in Southport and live at Varsity Lakes which is between Bond uni and Robina.

I see on the US forums that there have been issues with stalling on the JWT popcharger. Have you had any of that?

Cheers,

Yes I did have it, but I've fixed it by resetting the ECU. Well most of the list is from a fender bender I had a while ago

But by the time I get to gold cost I should have new wheels, tires and all the brake stuff installed.

I'd rather not try out nuff's mods! With words like cracked and destroyed he sounds way too hard core for me.

BTW have you fixed all that up?

There's been some confusion with the insurance, everything is resolved now and I'm taking in the car for repairs tomorrow or friday, it all depends on my work.
