Hey gang, looking for someone who uses or has used the following.
K&N (FIPK) induction kit
Granitelli Mass air sensor
Hypertec Power programmer
I'd like some opinions and perspectivess.
I'm looking for actual gains, as in bang for the buck. I know that forced induction would be great, but lets be realistic. :confused:
Being in Colorado and driving at 5k around town with trips to 11K (and 4.9 percent grades) takes it's toll performance wise.
I've heard good things about the Hypertec programmer and even some positives for the Granitelli mass air sensor. The K&N seems like a no brainer, but is a little pricey and I think the claimed 14-22 more hp might be a little "inflated". Another option is the "Air Raid" system similar to the K&N (uses a K&N filter) but a full $100 less.
The vehicle is a 99 Chevy extended cab K1500
5.7 Liter (350) V-8 3.73 gears Auto
Stock tires
Used for light towing (1,500 lb pop-up camper or 3-rail bike trailer)
Thoughts?
Anyone?
