air intakes
guys im wanting a air intake, not sure which one yet. I honestly think
their all pretty good. But seems like the afe & tymar are really popular.
I like the afe's, haven't seen a tymar set-up. Out of the two which one
will run a cooler charge? Show me some pic's of yours if ya want. &
how would I go about getting a tymar if I did get one?

I can't tell you which one is better - but I'll say this. I have an AFE intake on my truck now - but only 'cause I didn't find this site and had never heard of a Tymar before I got my intake. Personally I'd go with the Tymar for the cost side of things.

Yeah I really like the tymar, since it cost a lot less. Now does the tymar have the
big cylinder type filter like afe stage 2, & with the big intake duct? I think the mod
mug bit me. I think more about mods then worrying about having enough money to
pay for my new portable welder, heh.

Well - I can't say that I know - my suggestion would be to call and talk to them about the options. Good luck!

If you get the Tymar air intake mod do you have to have any other mods for it to work right or can you put it on a bone stock truck????????

no you dont need anything else to make it work just put it on.
I made my own intake, cost me 3 bucks plus the cost of the filter and i bought a k&N so i had $58 in it. Does the same thing at half the price.

Dale at Tymar usually sends his payment request to you through PayPal. That way you can pay with a card or directly through your bank. Give him a call as aposed to e-mail. It ususally take a week or two for him to answer all his e-mails. He usually ships to you the day of/after your order. He can get it to you as fast as your wallet can handle as well.
The Tymar plugs right in to a stock truck. It is usually the first mod done as it opens up doors for installing other mods. ie.. exhaust and chips/programers.
Don't forget the gauges!

thats a heck of a deal, sounds like he's a good guy to deal with. I do have the
gauges & a power module as well. I really aint in need of a air intake, but it would
really allow me take advatage of my module. So I won't have to worry about high egt's. I hear they sound cool, & make the turbo whine slighlty louder? I hope.

Yes, pretty much any open element style filter will give you turbo whine you're looking for. I have the Ford AIS intake and love it. I went with that filter because my truck is still under warranty. Had it not been, I would have gotten the Tymar.

If you have a stock intake setup you sure as hell do need an aftermarket one! Those buggers are known for not sealing properly. It will lower your EGT's a little, but never enough to not have to worry about them.

well thats true about the egt's. But mine even if i get on it pretty hard they stay
within reason. But the one time that i dog it & dont watch the pyro is when pistons
get porosity in them, heh.
