OK the "parts weren't right for each other" argument is somewhat BS IMO. We're not talking about cams or turbos or anything like that, we're talking about very simple bolt-ons that simply allow the car to take in more air faster. That is basic engine dynamics. To me saying that the parts aren't working right as a group is a massive cop-out.

That neither had gains to begin with. I don't see any reason why they wouldn't work together if they worked at all.

yeah, I don't think I would get the CAI, yet a lot of people recommend it. i rather just get the rrm one again haha, sucks that I had to sell it. was great. definitely felt the difference when I took it off.
