I agree. The fellow who did the freeze plug mod said there was a lip inside the silencer/resonator hole to stop the plug against, and he installed them flat side up.

Your idea is better, but even better would be the availability of the air tube that FRPP uses with their 'GTB' CAI, which is the same tube except it does not have the holes for the resonators. Maybe they'll make it available as a single part eventually.

$54 for a replacement paper filter? That's kind of steep.

Does the FRPP kit include a tuner?

Except that $54 filter will probably outlast your $10 filter by about 6X

I found some flat edge PVC pipe cap ends and installed them in the holes. I cut them down flush to the hose, then I ground a notch all the way around and then hose clamped them in.

How do you figure the $54 conical paper filter is going to "outlast" the paper panel filter? I saw the Bullitt paper filter in person and it looks sort of like a blackened cellulose material - not bad. The black color might just mask the dirt in the filter.

Overall, I just don't see the value in buying the Bullitt intake for a street car unless you want to brag about horsepower gains.

Based on everything I've read it should long outlast the regular GT filter.
Nothing says you have to buy it. You'd need to use the tune from FRPP or another anyway.

I would just need the air transfer function so I can flash the PCM using my SCT PRP but I don't really need an aftermarket intake for the Stang.

What else is included with the complete air box for $316.01?

Do the two pieces for $361.44 include the filter and all hardware? (i.e., nothing else required for the install?)

I was a little confused myself. The Ford, Jegs, and Summit sites list the whole shebang at around $669 or so. This is part number M-9603-GTB and looks like it has everything you need including the programmer. So, what is the Clevenger price then for the M-9603-GTB? I was also having a heck of a time figuring out what different parts I would have to order to comprise the M-9603-GTB package.

I sell the Individual Service Parts off of the Bullitt. This is offered for Those who Do not Want the FRPP tune or want Just the Pieces to Adapt to an Existing CAI install. I am Not an FRPP Dealer and Do not Offer the M9603B.

Here is a Little Food For Thought. The Factory Bullitt Intake as I sell it Comes with a New MAF Mass Air Flow Sensor vs the FRPP which Does not. At $249.00 Msrp + Core for the Maf by itself That equates to Quite a Deal overall. So my Point is if at Some time your Maf Goes Bad it Might be a Good Time to Get the Oe Bullitt Setup and Cut your Losses. Or on the other Hand You always Got a Spare.

FYI,

KC

maybe I missed it in this thread somewhere, but looking for the projected power improvements from the Bullitt CAI set-up... using the FRRP set-up (M-9603-GTB). I love this looks as does not look like the typical "add-on" like many of the other CAI's I have been viewing.

Thanks!

KC, just to clarify comments on page 3 of this post about getting everything needed for a Bullitt CAI... does the $361.44 include everything from the intake to the box?

Thanks!
