has anybody tested the two side by side i am interested in getting the best one but if the crosswind is a exact port copy of the RPM i would save a $100 and get that

Probably not identical, but very close!

Most guys get emotional talking about this b/c of the jobs drain out of our country and the pirating that is going on!!

Buy a used RPM....You will be glad you did.

A friend of mine's son just bought a crosswind intake for his truck. I thought the quality of the casting was terrible. Take an Edelbrock out of the box and compare them side to side. It'll be worth the extra $$$.

I agree and you'll still save money.
I wouldn't want some Chinese intake on my car!!

And the Wolf has actual data proving that the Chi-com intake made less power too.

Just for the record, I did buy and used RPM intake (thanks cop427).

I bought an Air Gap copy - used. Fit up was good, but had a heck of a time getting the rear water ports to seal off. If you can find one real cheap [100.00 for the polished intake) then consider it. If buying new, I would go with the Ede. And to tell you the truth, although I have not ran one, I am partial to the Weiand Stealth for big blocks.

PS - haven't put much running time on the motor since things got hot here, but in the spring when temps were in the 50's, the AirGap style intake made for real cold blooded motor.

Can you give me some info concerning this? Any testing you have done with another intake? Very curious to see your results if so. Thanks.

i didnt know they were from china,but i have been seeing alot of professional products stuff in catalogs and ads
