Default Halltech Stinger Question

Is the Halltech Stinger worth the money. There will me no other mods on the car with the exception of this or another intake. Will there be a noticeable SOTP feeling?

Thanks in advance for any feedback given.

I hope so, as I have the Stinger and the Cold Air pkg sitting beside me right now waiting on our Lemans Blue coupe that we pick up next month. This is all personal opinion - you have to weigh all you hear. I personally like it because its not a bottom air feeder. I think the filter will stay cleaner and not be as likely to have any water on it. Looking forward to finding out when I get the Vette as far as SOTP goes!
Good luck on whatever you decide. I am looking forward to the responses about this topic.

I installed both and I feel that it is an improvement over stock, no issues

I have the Halltech Stinger w/CAI. No problems. I also have heads/cam/headers/exhaust. The Halltech w/CAI increases airflow at higher speeds.

Any problems or things to look for in installing the cold air intake? The Stinger is super easy. Just wondering, thought it will fall together when I am actually under the car doing the install. Great to hear these positive reviews.

i have a k&n intake instead....they are pretty much the same...did some back to back comparsion at the track was able to go 1 mph trap faster then the stock set up. if you brought the halltech cai you wouldn't need to cut anything...that cai is a cut stock piece already.

Default cai...

or you could save the rediculous amount of money they charge and just cut a hole or two in your stock setup and it'll accomplish the same thing that does!!search for DIY cold air setup...

Stock piece as modified by Halltech. Holes cut at either side and mesh installed over. Modification will bring ambient air to the filter area.
