Man i Want COld air intake for my lancer but it Automatic!!! any one know Comapny sell CAI for Automatic or other cars model will fit our lancer 2.0.. I Beg Beg INJEN to make CAI for automatic!!!!!!!!!

 

bell housing to big... i think the problem is.... any way the at gets in the frekng way!......what you can do is get a sri and use the stock intake thing to use to bring cold air in... or you can custom fit one.... ive been thiong of making alot of custom crap for my car cause im poor... like i wanna make me a 2.25 custom no cat exhaut... but i cant do bends unless i heat the metal up and bend retarded..... anyway .....i started to jack this ****................ MEH! it deserves to be hy-jacked

 

LOL yeah that what i thinkin about custom... Buy Injen SRI then get u know dryer pipe to outside.. use that because they have heat proof and so make a Cold air intake.... or some way... i have to look inside the damn hood

 

just whatever you do if you decide to do anything behind the gauges in the dash dont break the **** out of the bezel like me!!!... lol i borke 2 pieces and now my speedometer doesnt wqork....but i know why... i just dont wanna break some more **** to fix it yet!

 

man i have to figure out and make ideas for automatic CAI!! and sent design to Injen and make it one!

 

that would be nice

 

If I recall, this topic was discussed a while back and it turns out that in order to make a CAI for the auto Lancer, you would have to use no larger than 2" piping to get past the transmission, and the curves required to do are believed to cause too much resistance. Sure you could make your own CAI, but you'd be choking your lancer. I don't get what people see in CAIs anyway. SRI with a scoop/funnel usually gets a greater volume of air anyway, and the temp difference is less than 3 degrees!

 

i thought u can still get the CIA from injen, but you have to get a hammer and bent the piping to make it fit thur the tranny

 

I think that's true, but the hammer is to pound the piping into a bend and reduce it to about 2". IMO, worthless

 

true true! CAI is way over rated! and besides when it rains you gotta remove it or............ hydrolock!

 

u wont get hydrolock unless u really mess up, and i also prefer short ram over cai. i also prefer 5spd over automatic...but i bought an auto lancer...go figure

just stick with a short ram, you'll be glad u did. or when u mash the gas you'll get a decent pause before it picks up and go cuz of the distance the air has to travel...rather have air moving 6" to get to the throttle body...or 2 feet?

 

oooh okay, so if the differences are so little why even bother, plus the cai are more $

 

I have and automatic Lancer and I had the AEM Cold air intake in my car..it fitted pretty fine. If you decide to get the AEM, I think the best way to put it in is from the bottom, you just have to take the time to work it in, and all you have to do is remove the stock filter, just like you do on the manuel tranny......I took my CAI off because I got turbo non IC..

u bought AEM CAI for you Lancer Automatic but you bought AEM lancer 2.0 5-Speed? and it fit? what hell? im going crazy... Myabe buying CAI Injen and try install but i dont know yet maybe getine SRI.. Plus I live in washington state it soo wet state maybe i should get SRI than CAI cuz road soo wet and maybe over 1/2 inch of water on road or more but it rain all time....

 

Mayhem, post some pics and maybe a how-to. I still prefer SIR, but for those die hard CAI lovers, if they knew how to fit one into their auto, they would be very happy.
