Craptech is at it again

somewhere on this planet they are claiming that with an intake ALONE they got are you ready for this??














110lb/ft of torque






Yes you read that right, intake alone using bullet air cleaners

i didn't see those numbers posted on the Dyno sheets - the interpolated data showed that (mostly mis-projected IMHO)

it seems stock is 336HP/376TQ

FTP intake changes to 344HP = +8HP (believable)
and either 419 or 467 TQ (that's a huge spread between 2 runs) = that would equate to 43-91 ft-lbs

pre-intake


post intake

I'm simply posting what was posted, I question why the dyno HP/TQ crosses at 4,750rpm instead of the regular 5225 as well - it may be skewing the TQ number

I think the 8HP is viable - TQ is another thing...

It doesn't cross at 5252 because the scaling is different between hp and trq ( notice tq goes up to 450 while hp goes to 400 on the graph ). This is okay.

As for the gains...well...ummmm....errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

That is a very vague answer to a very straight forward question.
Once again, do you believe that the FTP intake made 8whp and 43wtq??
And while you are there, do you also believe that the FTP rebadged magnaflow cans added in the neighborhood of 30whp??

LOL of course not! Like I said, I think his calculations (estimates) are WAY off!

I bought it, actually. Had it powder coated Mars Red. Should be in this week, I will post my experience after install. Steve was cool as hell to deal with, so far. Working with Jerry at Eurocharged also.....hoping to hit mid 180's in the Texas Mile this March.

Best video ever. FTP will soon be offering a quad charged setup. Twin turbos plus a FTP rebadged Weistec blowing into a stock blower. Forgot to add it will run on nitro methane. Should make just over 4000hp and on STOCK internals. Of course that's only with the FTP intake and exhaust included.

are you really that daft? Cold air intake on a supercharged car will NOT change the PR pre blower enough to make 43-91 ft/lbs of torque

We get that you and Steve are boifriends but jeez lets at least try to keep things realistic

No jabs, just sarcasm. Unless of course you think powdercoating a supercharger that creates more heat than a nuclear reactor is a good idea

Nope, didn't know your angle. That's all. You know, on bestgore....I have never been banned. I probably have to approach my posts a little different, here.
