Default Should the larger SSM filter make a difference from the normal halltech filter??

I just bought a stinger setup that came with the huge SSM filter, I'm wondering if there is a real world difference in performance between the standard filter & this one. Do our cars seem to like the smaller filter more? Can the stock Z06 fuel injectors supply the proper amount of fuel to accomodate the added air I now have ??

The difference in filter size will only come into play when they get dirty. The larger filter will take longer to become restrictive due to being covered with dirt. Your stock fuel system is more than adequate to handle a stinger upgrade.

I put down good numbers with just the Halltech Stinger SSM and A&A corvette dyno tune. Numbers in sig.

I would call Jim at Halltech. When I was looking for a CAI, he was very helpful on the phone.

Might as well get the scoop from the source.
