I want to get a CAI now. I already have a nice Injen SRI with a new Injen Air Filter so I am not worried about the filter, I just need a CAI setup. What do you guys think of this? Any other suggestions? I know that there are more expensive tubes and all but I also realize that these cheaper ones are good too.
The reason I want a CAI is strictly because I want that growl sound on acceleration that the SRI just doesn't seem to produce enough. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/90-91-92-93...#ht_4944wt_1195 This post has been edited by 6G96GT: May 30, 2009 - 12:12 PM |

a CAI style intake will actually get you less intake sounds and the same acceleration.

QUOTE (95st-celica @ May 30, 2009 - 2:42 PM)  not true...my CAI scremed compared to the stock intake? of course. but when moving from a short to long intake you'll get slightly less intake noise from the longer one. the piping itself cancels a little of the noise but mostly you're moving the filter from which the noise will emanate further from your ears. -------------------- |

I only say this because my neighbor has an acura integra (I think it's a 94 or 96) with a CAI and it growls a hell of a lot harder than my car does with a SRI.
