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?
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 .
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 ?
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
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:
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?
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)?

Yeah, it's kind of a hiss type sound, it's pretty loud for the first 20-30 seconds from when I turn the car on, then it quiets down, but I can still here it a little bit. Is this just from the more air that the filter is sucking up now? Any thoughts are eliminating it?
when i crank mine in the morning, it sounds like a hissss....or like someone is sucking air through a straw. ppl say it almost sounds like a turbo spooling.
That sound when you turn the car off is a cylinder ending on an intake stroke so its the last bit of air going into the intake. When you turn off the car, the engine doesnt just stop, it must deaccelerate and thats the sound you hear. Its normal. And that ticking noise is louder now with the intake because there isnt as much plastic and as many resonators to dull the sound. The sound you hear when you hit the gas from idle or nuetral is air rushing in behind the butterfly as the throttle body opens and there is a vacuume.
