Default should i put STOCK back on?

i have a iceman intake. i nkow it doesnt have any hp gains, but it does sound nice. I was wondering if i should sell it and put my stock intake with resonator on and a K&N filter? or should i just keep the iceman? i know this isnt anythign major, but what do you all think?

what the hell are you talking about. the intake WILL give you some sort of a gain, plus the sound, plus the throttle response. people telling you a drop in filter is just as good are choads.

besides k&n filters cost like 35-40 wow then you'll have 60 bucks left from selling the intake. lot thats gonna get you.

sorry for coming off as a d!ck but why would you want to work backwards?

well, not exactly. You tend to loose low end power with an intake and gain a tiny bit on the high end. Also, i bet many will say throttle response stays the same, and even might get worse. But thats more personal opinion i guess. And about working backwards, if you see a lot of the true fast cars that have FI or all motor, then u'll see many run their stock air box with K&N filter. So its not a bad idea. I was just curious as to wether or not people prefered to have intake or stock system with new filter.

I'd say keep it since you got it already.

I'd say keep it cuz you're not gonna make a lot of money selling it anyway.
