most 197 stats run too cold and are hard to get upto temp. matched inlets can be worth it depending on how bad there are standard, mine was a good engine to start with, but after i got mine done, my mapper saw the benefits of the inlets when he was doing the power run before he mapped it. im pretty sure on an exhange basis match inlets dont cost that much now. people get too hung on peak power gains, its not all about that, its overall drivability of the car, i only gain about 8bhp peak with all the mods i did, but the drivability of the car felt it was 10 x faster.
