Trick flow or Vortech Intake Elbow?
Which one doesnt need any modifications in order to make it fit? I have the slp cai, and heard that one of the elbows would need modification if it's going to fit.

Re: Trick flow or Vortech Intake Elbow?
I was wondering the same thing...

Maybe getting a 1LE intake elbow as well, are there any HP increases by deleting the resonator, or just make your intake a lot louder?

I have 1LE, I only bought it because mine ripped. I would say there is little to no HP increase.

I bought the Vortech and I have the SLP Dual Intake, my intake elbow has been sitting in the basement for 11 months. Does that answer your question?

There was a post on this not too long ago. It will fit with the SLP but you will have to cut either the CAI kit on the MAF side OR cut the Trickflow on the MAF side about 3/4 of an inch.

Re: Trick flow or Vortech Intake Elbow?
so can I take it to any machine shop and they will cut the elbow? I also heard you have to drill a hole for the opti thingy.

I have a trick flow and had to cut mine 2 inches to get mine to fit with the SLP I have pics of it on my website below.
