I'm thinking about the CAI by Injen BUT I live in Vancouver and it rains alot! I'm wondering if the bypass valve helps out that much, or should I just go with the short ram intake? Differences in power gains? I need help guys. Thanks!

 

I hate to say it cuz I know what it's like to be new. So I'll be gentle before any of the mean people see your post.

Do a search for SRI and CAI. There are a bunch of threads debating them.

 

yeah, do a search man, it's a code of conduct here... but

I say, for weather purpose get a SRI... than when spring/summer comes around get a CAI. That's exactly what im doing.

 

just buy the injen unit. it can be converted between sri and cai pretty easy sense a 2 peice pipe.

 

i have CAI and it rains crazy in florida..... the filter is right behind the driver fog lamps.. and i took my fog lamps off... and its still raining... hey im still driving...

 

Sorry guys, It was late and I didn't feel like reading around. Thanks though!

 

Does Injen make a filter that isn't a chrome finish? I'm really not fond of chrome under my hood.

 

yeh they do..i dont think they have a chrome finish filter..mines black.

 

Well I'd go with Injen if they had blue or red.

 

make sure you tune your ECU for it. Otherwise your intake might make you lose power or really mess up your air/fuel sensor and you'll stall or run too rich or have partial throttle problems.

 

how'd u go about doing that...is it just disconnecting the batt for bout 30 mins and connecting and letting the car run??? or is it sumthin diff???

 

buy the kit, take it to a shop and tell them what you have...TurboXS and XS Engineering could do it for you among a million other shops who sells this EUTEC system, or a self-administered ECU tuning.
