CAI + Pulley

Hey guys,

Planning on ordering the RRM CAI + Pulley Kit today from RRM.

From searching on the forums, I noticed the CAI kit reduces low end torque in the RA and increases the torque around the mid to high end. I also noticed that Pulley kits increased engine responsiveness and also more importantly for me, increased the low end torque.

So, putting the math together, if the CAI reduces the low end torque but the pulley kit increase low end torque then CAI + Pulley Kit should = increases both low end and high end torque...

Anyone agree, just want to be sure that's all. I know there will be a positive difference, but it's always good to hear others experiences.

Thanks.

You will be happy with this setup. I have it and love it.
The torque loss down low with the CAI is negligable.

^^^+1 I got the pulley first then the cai and note the loss of torque but know that the torque is there because of CAI and U/P .Good math my son.

I installed the CAI first, which is a huge improvement over stock- you will love it. I didn't notice much loss in low end torque. I just installed the pulley yesterday and didn't notice as much of an increase in HP but it does seem to improve low end torque, especially in the higher gears.

Thanks for the feedback fellas. I was thinking of going CAI first then Pulley, but I thought what the heck, the reviews on the pulley's is absolutely GOLD, so I figured I'd just order both.

Sound's great, I'll order them today if Gabe get's back to me with total incl. shipping.

Cheers!

I have the same thing only i haven't installed my pulley because i just got it yesterday and wasn't home. Let's hope i can feel a lot of low end torque from it.

Kevin, let me know how it goes! Also, when you're free, let us know how the installation went...anything to look out for etc...

Would be glad to hear how it goes on the low end!

Cool >:|
