[V8] PT vs. ABH intake

[Andrew Schlueter]

I would have to say the intake is the same size opening at the filter
side.
 There are two different throttle bodies between the auto and the 5speed
on the 3.6. the 4.2 has one. I wonder what the difference really is
between all 3?


Btw al,
Your wheels are the hotness on das v8

Yes you can do this, and its already been done. If your car didn't
already
come with the egr valve, then you do not have to install it (operates
seperate from the ecu anyway) The 3.6 intake does flow smoother, but no
one,
to my knowlege, has flowed both intakes to see wich flows MORE. If  they
both have the same flow capacity, then go with the 3.6 as it does flow
smoother.Al
