mine is the Place Racing Cold Air Intake (CAI)... it can be obtained at www.cattman.com

www.warpspeedperformance.com now sells CAI's as well...

you're other choices are the Stillen Intake www.stillen.com or the JWT Popcharger... www.courtesyparts.com

unless they changed the price:
JWT Pop-Charger -- $160
Stillen -- $190

These two are the exact same thing. only the stillen has a k&n brand filter.

Go to EBay and buy an intake there. I got mind for $50 with a K&N Cone. Don't pay over $70 for it.

ummm

What exactly are you looking for?

I have the Warpspeed performance CAI, which goes under the fender wall, just like the other brands, only cheaper. I think what roman is talking about is a pop charger (stays inside the engine compartment). Both are an improvement over the stock air box, but you will get a couple more ponies out of a true CAI system. Just my $.02.

If you're going.....

for cold air intakes go with Warpspeed Performance and save about $80 than if you went with PLace Racing. as for regular intakes just get a regular K&N cone, it shouldn't cost more than $70-80 instead of paying $90-100 for a JWT Intake and even more for a Stillen Intake.

I have a k& cone filter on the end of the regular intake now with the box removed. Where can I get just a tube or can I? I just want a pop charger Not a Cai. What is the cost if I order it from courtesy? Thanks

YUP, go here to take a look at it--> WSP (you might have to click reload if you don't see the CAI)

I don't think.....

they make a specific pipe, but I think there was a guy on here that is using a intake pipe form a N/a Mitsu Eclipse, and it looked like it fit perfectly between the TB inlet and the MAF sensor. search the archives for this post, it might still be on the forum page. I don't think Courtesy sells intake piping either. I know the intake piping for the N/a eclipse is $60-70 at JC Whitney in the Sport Compact catalog and about $70 at Jegs.com

WSP CAI

Yes, we have a REAL CAI. If you go to our web site PICs are there. Yesterday, I got in a shippment from our shop. They will need powder coating. If you are looking for a specific color, call Dallas or e-mail him. Many colors available. Check out posting by Isaacm and Kaenjo and his buddy Thang, they and I have the first models on. They work and are easy to install.We now offer models for the 4th Gen Maxima as well as the VG and VE models
