From what I understand, you folks with A/T feel the car response better at a low rpm. I would like to know at what range you folks are feeling a better response compare to a stock intake. Also I would like to know starting at what range you feel no power on your max. Thanks.

 

2-4k pulls a lot harder. 5.5k starts to run outa breath. y-pipe will help that a little. MEVI is the answer.

 

cai intakes is a good mod for autos it reduces some lag in low end but it does seem to run at of breath in the top end nothing drastic.

 

top end?

what do you consider top end? 5-6rpm?

curious, have you folks compare to a mid-pipe?

thanks for the info

 

I have, no proof on paper(time slips) but from driving on the highways, the CAI seems slower to pick up speeds than the midpipe would

 

I love my cai. i have injen racing division, and feel a better response the entire time. low end is amazing, sounds so nice. deep growl, and when 3rd gear hits in, i feel an instant pull. mine does not really run out of air at high rpm's until almost at redline. i have had it on my 1999 maxima gle superblack on black leather, and like it more and more every time i get in my car. so much better than stock.

have you compare your CAI to a mid-pipe.
