Incredible !!!!!

How is it possible to create another 100 hp with that new air intake?
Any answers? .-)



Does it look good or not? Would be my serious question.

I do not think it is possible to add 100HP with a new air intake. It will certainly help performance some if its drawing cooler air from outside the engine compartment, but not close to that extent. JMO. After all, according to Dyno tests The Paxton supercharger only added 50 RWHP at 6 pounds of boost.

As far as looks, it's a no for me. But you have to do what you think looks good.

mslc10 said it best.... Snake oil for sure....
As far as looks go... Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder... For me, just not crazy with the look...

Wow! I went out and laid an aluminum round cake pan on my hood and it looks just as good as that one. 🥴

Only way I know to get an additional 100 hp is to drop a 5.0L stroker motor in

Hello guys, thanks for your feedback.

I agree with the one, which voted with: "Not good".

Me and my girlfriend agreed not to install that part before that post.
It disturbs the elegant lines of the hood and the entire car.

We wanted to know how it effects others.

........tastes are different............

@Tony Goertz:

My red Prowler is my first one and is just optical customized. The airintake was just an idea, but IŽll not realize it.
My younger baby, since 5 weeks in Austria, a black kat, is/ was intended for a V8. But it looks like, in Austria are not many mechanics, who dare.
In addition the costs should rise up to 50.000.--bucks.
Nobody limits the costs to 35 or 40.000.--USD, which would be my pain threshold. This project is in the stars. Unfortunately. Thanks for your support.

@beachkat2
The airintake of Edscat I really like and it fits much more better than my Edelbrock.
Never mind if it works or its fake. It looks powerful and thats the main thing, I find.

Prowl on, Geri
