So, just trying to see what people are running etc.

Currently I'm trying this setup out, small pod inside a ally box that collects all the cold air from the factory snorkel. Feels improvement from low down, plus gives the better sound, but it's still pretty quiet.

If it still feels better later on, i'll fab up a better box,

Pete.

i agree with you but retuning for the setup wasn't the point of the video there is no doubt CAI have a positive effect even if it's not kw related (intake temps for one even after they just took of the headlight a more stable intake temp is going to be better for response and torque) the point of the video was dispell the rumors and marketing ploy by sellers of CAI's stating their product offers x kw's right out of the box of course if your tune is optomized you'd see more power but i wouldn't consider more kw as the only reason to do one.

my coupe uses the stock box drawing from the fender normaly in this area there is a U shaped peice of plastic that come back up under the batery mine isn't there so i technically have cai

yes it's me KHUBNER
