pathfinder01 Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Is it worht it to install an intake system for my Pathfinder? I'm not sure about their claim i.e. 14 whp gain and 4% increase in fuel economy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02silverpathy Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hey man welcome!! I jst missed your post...I can't speak for the JWT pop charger but check my post....i id notice just alittle difference in power like up hill and under tough loads. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=3216&hl=intake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_johnson Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 14 whp? No way. More like 5-8 crank hp. 4% increase in economy? Possibly. Say you get 16 mpg currently, a 4% increase would bump you to 16.64 mpg, a reasonable expectation. I saw about a .5 to 1 mpg increase with my "custom" intake, so I would beleive that claim.

pathfinder01 Posted March 5, 2005 Author Share Posted March 5, 2005 Thanks for the replies guys. I'll just make my own custom made cold air intake. Since the stocker has a pipe that goes under the fender, this can be already a cold air intake and add a K&N filter. I just need to modify the lower part of it right? Any suggestions on this idea!

Guest blitZ Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 (edited) I installed the Frankencar intake with the Apexi filter. My gas mileage is up to 17.5mpg around town and performance is noticelby improved. 2001 Pathfinder mods Edited March 5, 2005 by blitZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowOSU Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 check this out. This is what a couple members on here have done. i did it myself this fall, in my school parking lot. Pretty simple upgrade and the power is noticable especially at the higher RPMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dank Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Yeah, I just cleaned my JWT filter last week for the first time. Lots of crud and dirt in there. Then I created a heatshield for it using some materials laying around. So only air being directed in from the fender is used. Works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuned200 Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I have been thinking ofbuying the JWT pop charger, do you guys think its worth the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
