It might help a lil with gas mileage but it wont be any substantial power gain...although you will be able to hear it suckin in air at high rpms on the road, so long as you have the windows down....I miss my Z[]..... got any pics of yours??

I doubt you'll be able to hear the intake much. The roar of the exhaust will probably be too loud. I really don't know what the difference of having one is between it and stock, because the intake was on mine when I bought it.

I could hear mine pretty good, of course it helps when your next to concrete barriers too.

x2. I've also been wanting to know if they make a difference. And also, what kind of elbow are you getting? I've seen metal ones, then also the 1LE elbow.

trick flow LT1 aluminum eblow+kit. It eliminates the donkey dong and is alot more efficient than the rubber tubing, i wont see much increase but when i get the moroso kit to finish it off ill kit a lil bit bigger kick in the butt.
