Um, I think he means that there aren't any automatic SVTs, so it makes you wonder about their products...

I think the kit looks pretty nice. The CTA intake is what...$75, and a K&N filter and MAF adalter is what...$75, so you're saving $ right there.

2 comments:

1. Is the K&N "big" enough...looks short and squat

2. Notice that the RVM logo...as in the pics..is actually on the bottom side of the intake pipe (look at pic installed in car)...What's up with that?

"Here is a rundown of the info I have so far:

K&N part# air flow dimensions (in)

RU-3530 646cfm 5.375 x 4.375 x 7
RC-4630 616cfm 5.5 x 4.5 x 6.5
RU-3130 536cfm 4.625 x 3.5 x 7
E-0998 682cfm unknown

BTW formula used for RU-3130 from K&N:
(base + top)/2=A, A x length x 6 x 3.14 =cfm"

This was from an earlier posting...
