Mak Performance Inlet vs Turbo Guard test *with results*

[Gregory347]

i have the Procharger inlet. I can do the same pulls with it. If people are interested

That would be helpful. Procharger inlet probably on more cars here than the turbo guard.

That would be great, currently have the Procharger. Looking to buy the Mak but would love to see the difference.

Can you run the test with open element meaning no turboguard?

Very interesting, thanks for the info!

I have a 2015 with P1X HO, been looking at the MAK... Anyone know if it will fit with an aftermarket 2.25" radiator? I have the stock radiator with stock PC inlet now, and its already a tight fit... Thanks for the good info!

I doubt it will. I bought the original Mak inlet only to find that it wouldn't work with my Mishimoto radiator.

Damn... So what did you do? My MAK Hurricane will be here tomorrow...

Nothing. I have a MAK inlet sitting around that I need to sell.

I just put in the stock Procharger inlet. The space between the inlet and the radiator nipple is the same between the stock inlet and this new mak inlet.

And you have the smaller MAK inlet. The new ones are 4.5" instead of 4".

Those 5.8 to 6.0 runs in those temps what would you think would be in the 1/4?

Should be mid 9's or so.

For a more representative 60-130 I need to start in 2nd. With 3.55 my 3rd gear goes to almost 110. Like the guy above said it can still probably do 9.50-9.60 in this weather. I just start in 3rd in these tests for consistency. Car has ran a best of 9.34 at 150

I think your 60-130's at 9.3/150 are high fours low 5's. This is great information although fairly useless to my build. This is what these forums are really for - testing via data and discussion. Well done!

Yea I’d say that pretty fair guess. Appreciate it.
