I know you get a bigger filter and a slightly bigger "airbox", but I really don't see it being THAT much better than say a K&N drop in (in the SVT airbox), performance wise. It'll sound a lot better, but without major mods is the RU-3530's extra CFM's really necessary (over the E0998)?
I myself have the CF version of the GMK. I know it's not a perfect intake solution (with the bends before the MAF) but I feel as though it'll make the best numbers.
Well I personally have the Pro Flow 75mm MAF for the SVT attached to a KKM adaptor attached to a Ru-3530 so w/ these mods im getting considerable more air flow over stock. I also just finished making my sealed airbox to house evevrything that is attached to the snorkel. As far as horsepower increase goes w/ those mods....eh maybe 5 hrsp gain...but it can only be made better if chipped etc. Basically opens up the oportunity for more hrsp down the road. Plus allowing the engine to breath better is a plus.
