Anyone know of any numbers from the R2C to compare to the Stillen G3?

 

R2C's intake hasn't been released yet and they haven't released any dyno numbers. I'm hoping the week after next (SEMA) we'll get an ETA for first shipments.

 

The only thing that makes me skeptical about R2C is that I can't find any dyno numbers from any of their other intakes. They make them for Z's and G35's yet I can't find any independent or R2C dyno sheets that show before and after.

 

Just read through the forums... Theres info about the Gen3 and R2C posted in many threads... then if you still cant find it use the search feature...

 

Right-to Max. Read all the threads, just looking for numbers for the R2C intake. The Stillen numbers posted will probably approximate my expectations, running Berks now, add HKS and intake next. Thanks

 

The STILLEN gen 3. intake is amazing.. I love mine.. Looks incredible and the power is definitely there especially down low...

 

Dyno's will come and I'd definately wait for them. R2C has serveral obvious advantages right out the gate:

• A single high polished tube to the throttle body which looks better, no joint.
• Easy install requiring no modification to the car.
• Custom designed sick looking filters providing better filtration and performance both initially and loaded with dust.
• Easy access and maintenance - no oiling required, low pressure air to clean.. no waiting to dry.
• CAI design that doesn't expose filters to enviroment which will translate into less maintenace required.
• No risk of oil contamination and possible engine damage or wear inherient with cotton gause filters.

As they like to say, R2C designs intakes from the end cap of the filter to the throttlebody, and this one is custom designed for the G37, not just fitted to get it to install with a 3rd party filter slapped on. They don't run 100 dynos to get the design, they use CFA (comprehensive computational flow analysis) sofware to develop the design followed by extensive testing in their lab.

I'm sure the sound will be awesome as every other full tube intake has sounded, the question remaining is how will it perform, hopefully within a month we'll have the answer.

 

^+1 cant wait for these to come out already!!!

 

If you haven't read yet, I am doing the dyno for the Stillen 3G intake this Saturday.

 

Sweet

 

idk what to choose... should i get the R2C or the 3g ? i heard that the 3G your risking future air problems and stuff... and yeah it has the shields on them but like in MIAMI it rains a lot and im scared of that too ??

Any words for me ?

 

When are the R2Cs even going to be available?

 

The decision would be alot easier once we have dynos. My money's on R2C, pun intended, since they design intakes based on airflow efficiency and not just the plumbing but the filter itself. The other advantages are icing on the cake... and very sweet icing at that. R2C see's the measurement of efficiency as the key and only factor when designing a high performance intake. I beleive they will be doing a dyno with their test user since they know folks like to compare based on dyno data however that's unconfirmed at this juncture. Also I beleive Andy had some options for doing a dyno on a stock car as well.

 

Andy's gong to meet up with Ed at SEMA and perhaps get that answer for us. Last update I had is he would have a better idea last week and I never recieved an ETA update. My guess is it should be within the month of Nov they start shipping.. that's a guess though.
