What you said was wrong and was corrected.



Let's break the price difference down:

CJ intake - $720 from Tousley
GT500TB - $100 from Tousley
Intake tube - I paid $90 for a 2010 GT intake tube from Airaid and modified it to fit my existing Airaid airbox.

Total cost: $910

Boss intake - $473 from Tousley
Intake tube - $167 from Autoplicity
No need to replace the stock 80mm throttle body. No gains there.

Total cost: $640

Difference: $270

If you have a Boss intake already and want to move to the CJ you spent quite a bit of extra money. If you are running the stock intake and haven't decided, an extra $270 over the Boss setup isn't going to break the bank.



Sure it is. Puts up great dyno numbers (500+ WHP) and runs a 119MPH trap speed.
Yet I crushed a car that runs the same mph that makes less power then me. I'm pretty sure I would pick up mph if I was able to launch the car at higher rpms instead of at 3k rpms.
