Publishsed by Dan on May 22nd, 2008 | Posted in Product Info | No Comments »

Agency Power has just released their all new carbon fiber cold air intake kit for the Porsche 996 Turbo.  Based off their other aluminum box, this carbon fiber unit adds a sense of style and quality to the engine bay of the Porsche.  The intake utilizes the factory air snorkel to guide air in and across a colored silicone tube to the left box which houses a K&N air filter for maximum performance.  As tested on a Mustang AWD Dyno, the cold air intake kit produced 32 wheel horsepower and 22 ft/lbs of torque in the mid RPMs.  Check out all the info and pictures of the Agency Power Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake Kit Here.

2008 Subaru STI Tested with AP Cold Air Intake and BOV

Publishsed by Dan on May 15th, 2008 | Posted in Product Info | 1 Comment »

Vivid Racing got the opportunity to test the new Agency Power Cold Air Intake and Blow Off Valve on the new 2008 Subaru STI.  The intake has already been tested on the new 2008 WRX, with power results show great gains.  The STI features a stronger engine and platform so we wanted to see what the results would yield.  This STI was completely unmodified.  The Blow Off Valve was set to vent 100% atmosphere.  The cold air intake was installed after the baseline dyno test was done showing 242HP and 257ft/lbs of torque to the wheels.  The after result showed a peak horsepower gain of close to 40whp at 5300rpm and a gain of 22whp at 6500rpm.  The torque peak was the same at stock, however after 4500rpm the torque stayed consistantly at an increase of around 20ft/lbs.

This intake is available as a short ram or cold air intake and includes a high flow K&N cone air filter, matching wrinkle red intake tube, AP silicone coupler, and aluminum heat shield.  You can purchase this intake and other parts for your Subaru WRX or STI on our Performance Parts Store Here.

40HP and 50Ft/lbs of Torque Gained on Project A3

Publishsed by Dan on April 16th, 2008 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

We finished testing the new parts listed below in addition to the car already being flashed. The car made an impressive 50ft/lbs of torque more then stock and 40 horsepower more. The throttle response is a little slower from the large IC pipes, but the mid range to top end RPM power and torque is definitely noticeable. It is less peaky and feels strong. The FWD torque steer is something to get use to. More mods to come!
