▼New Questions▼
I have a CAI for my ST, I feel like it gave me a little more power over stock, but it used to hang down on the tranni, and the heat shield use to actually get a little hot, and I assume the air isn't all that cold.
So I moved the piping around and got a little more to bend further. I got it almost to the driver side turn signal. With the invader kit, its a big opening under the turn, and thats right about where it rests.
I dont feel much of a difference from when it was in it original place and now, although it sounds better smile.gif. I was wondering, do you loose power if you go too far with the CAI piping?
thanks-
Also My air intake sensor (temp sensor?) is wrapped like 75% in electrical tape, never noticed it before. But should I take it off? would this affect anything?




▼Cleaning Air filter question ▼
I know there are K&N cleaner kits.... but I dont think its worth the money to buy since its not really dirty.
I have a pressure washer, so I was wondering can I just lightly wash it, would that get the dirt and particles out?
thanks! smile.gif
