Default Pro Flow Intake ...anyone try it?

Any opinions on the power gains? It seems like a well engineered piece but it doesn't seem to get alot of attention. Does it use a flat panel K&N filter or a conical type? Does anyone have pictures or a link to a install on a C5? How would it compare to a Donaldson filter that has a cold air lid on it? Thanks!

I got it and I love it. I had it on mt 98 C5, my 00 C5 and now on my 02 C5. Its just like the vortex. The K & N filter is oval, not round. I got mine from the Vette Doctors (forum Vendor). :yesnod: :yesnod:

We've reviewed the ProFlow+ and found it to be an excellent product. Great fit and finish, plus it uses an easy to find K&N filter.

I've had mine for several years and it has worked great. It uses a wide conical K & N filter. I don't know why it doesn't get a lot of attention.

I have had one for a couple of years. No problems. You need to take your time and cut the shroud right and get the screw holes centered. I have driven in heavy rains and no problems.

I have it and it’s great! :yesnod:
When motor was stock I ran 112.1MPH trap with just Pro Flow, TPIS and XR1 :D
Now have it on my 432ci motor and it’s still working great. :yesnod:
