AEM CAI box for RA

How do I fit the AEM CAI airbox on my RA?
No mini battery kit for me... Not reliable enough for -40 C weather.

Thank you in advance for info.

P.S. That CAI just looks SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!

I think you have to get the mini battery or relocate your battery to the trunk.

Yeah, I think It will go in the trunk... I wanted to know as well if there will be any fitting issues?

If battery output is a concern like you stated - understand you lose a lot current heating the wire from the trunk to the engine starter.

Either use the very largest wire you can fit or re-consider the CAI.

I would go with a thicker wire and get the Cai. That is if you are planning to do some serious modding. If not just stick with a drop in filter or an Sri. You won't see a big difference in horsepower.
