The add is also in Japanese, so it probably isnt for the 5SFE enigne anyways. And i thought the reason we dont have a cold air intake is because there is no where to run the pipes and filter....is that right?

Cold air gets you colder air, which is better; but you run the risk of getting a waterlocked engine, which is no joke and will costs you several thousand dollars for a new engine |

Air intake is just like the regular big boxed intake (for our cars), the cold air intake is like they said, it gets cold air by trying to get its air away from the engine & closer to fresh air instead of the heated air from under the hood.

and if you put the makers vinyl on the side of your car, it will unclock the finishing move to each CAI |

I had a left over air intake for a neon....I took it drilled a hole for the sensor had to cut 2 inches off but it runs along the side or the car just fine. I think it cost me like 10.00 and 15.00 to ship!

i got a CAI intake from our very own 95celgt. and i noticed a much bigger gain then .05 hp. probably more like 5-10 hp gain, and it sounds freakin awesome! very deep growl sound when you press on the gass.
