i found some 1/4 inch plate and 3.5 inch tubing in my garage. i was thinking of making a custom intake horn for my truck.any thoughts positive negative?

 

Won't hurt, might help. Go for it. Make something like this; PUSHER ALUMINUM Dodge Cummins 12v Intake Manifold Horn - eBay (item 220477841796 end time Nov-06-09 19:28:29 PST)

 

would one really lower egts 50-100 degrees?

 

more air flow; its entirely possible. you may notice boost pressure may drop; but it takes a restriction to create pressure. by cuttin the intake loose your reducing restriction and increasing flow. all of which can and will help egt's

 

so what do you think about the cfm+ intake elbows? poor investment as far as mods go?

 

every one on here says there not worth the 300 400 bucks but idk 160 for one seems worth it

 

so is the pusher intake elbow pretty much the same as the cfm, bladerunner,or bullydog but half the price?

 

Air Intake Horns=Lightened load in your wallet with minimal gains for your motor.

 

hom many horses would you even gain if any?

 

loss in pressure but volume would stay the say so would hp numbers correct?
