Shark Racing intake

Fudbalplaya87 · May 23, 2004

Has anyone installed the Shark Racing intake and if so is it a good quality intake?
Is it worth the price?

Thank you for answering my questions!!!!

I have one, although im installing it in someone elses car. The intake looks very good quality, but im not sure how it fits yet.

I think it fits nicely, but some people had problems with shipping and customer service at sharkracing!

While we are on the subjecct on intakes, is the Team SR Fusion intake good and has anyone ever used it in order for me to get an opinion? I would rather purchase this intake since it was recommended to me and is less expensive. So does anyone have an opinion?

This is the website:

Thanks and sorry if my questions are dumb, I am a newbie after all!! ha

Its the same intake i believe.

i have the intake, and it is installed...put it this way, neon drivers (2 friends) installed this intake in 30 mins in my work parking lot, while i was working. its awesome, i love it, has a very uniq sound to it, sounds hella more agressive.
but yeah, fits perfect.

yes, the evo fusion intake is the same, but has a glossy shinny finish, the SR one, looks plastic because of its rough finish, but it IS aluminum.

i have the TEAMSR CAI i like it.. installation was rather fun. you have to cut the hole bigger by the fender wall. you will not be able to use the battery tie down since this intake uses up a lot of space and it pushes the battery forward so theres no space(atleast on mine there wasnt) .then you just have to keep twisting until it barely fits under the fuse box. like i posted once before mine DID NOT line up completely to the TB but the gasket thing covers it all up. but over all its worth its $$$ . as for shark racing i had a hell of a time getting customer service when i ordered my bumper lights and they got lost in the USPS mail system

I've got it good sound and response its easy to install just find and DIY for installing the elantra intake and its easy as pie enjoy it I enjoy mine just not SR's Cust service .

I love it, as soon as i put mine in I feel in love with it. Dont forget to get a header and a new exhust, you will definitly notice the diffrence.

Here is mine, just installed yesterday. It's only loud if you accelerate fast or you get to the high RPM's. Fitment is close to perfect. We had to cut the hole a little bigger and couldn't use the bracket to secure it through the fuse box bolt hole. Oh wells.

thats funny, thats exactly what my engine bay looks like except i took off the engine cover, and my car is flaming cinnimon. i have the tib front strut bar, and that same intake. looks good man.

To all fellow owners... what does your car sound like now when you turn it on in the morning (meaning, after it has been sitting all night)? I'd like to see if my sound (that I can't quite describe) is similar to others?

Mine Kinda developed a sorta sound like a valve click but I know its not cuz the Valves on my car are fine but it does sound rather odd. Is that what your getting ?

SPIKE · May 30, 2004

When I had my AEM on the tib, in the morning when I first started it, it made a destinct sound, I think it is normal man a lot of the GK owners had it as well

TNT4ME · May 30, 2004

Or are you talking about the hiss. That is the auto choke. Kicks off after a couple minutes right? Hey just a side note, careful with the intake. I took mine back off because it could have been what made my exhaust manifold crack. Of course it doesn't help that I drive over 90 MPH regularly and legally here. Just a thought/warning for all... :drive:

TBurton · May 30, 2004

I have a "normal" hissing sound when I start the car and throughout driving it. My weird sound comes when I turn the key off in the ignition. Its kind of a sputtering, "coughing up blood" sound. Anyone else?

TNT4ME · May 30, 2004

I thought you were gone already. Sometimes I get a tiny "cough" depends on if I pull in and just shut off or actually let it go back to idle. Did you install CAI? Want one cheap cheap (Tburton only)?

How could an intake possibly make an exhaust manifold crack? That doesn't make any sense.

TNT4ME · May 30, 2004

More air in, more air out?

Just one of the many things I am thinking about why my damn exhaust manifold cracked at 28,000 miles.

Back on topic....I definately noticed a big difference when it was on. Even it it was just my foot on the gas pedal more to hear it open up.
