Re: SLP Cold air intake...Any good?
to put it bluntly, no. a stock box with a cut lid and a clean paper filter flows just fine.

Re: SLP Cold air intake...Any good?
Didn't Marc say there was no difference at all? 1-2hp is within dyno error anyway

Honestly for this small of a difference anything is possible to include dyno error. Now if it was 15 - 20 hp now we are talking

Re: SLP Cold air intake...Any good?
For a comprehensive take on what adds hp, this form Marc Haibeck's web site will shed some light on performance mods...
ZR-1 Specialist An aluminum insert for the air bridge will keep the plastic bridge from collapsing, thus pinching of air flow; more of a preventative measure than a HP adder. I would suggest looking at Marc's list of modifications and establishing a master plan, rather than succumb to the considerable gadget HP hype so prevalent in our hobby. Just sayin!

Re: SLP Cold air intake...Any good?
Vette73 - a Marc Haibeck chip comes highly recommended (I have had 2 in my current and previous ZR1s), and this certainly helps... next would be exhaust imho as bang for buck and easy to do... K&N air filter helps, yes, but so does a clean filter.
