Cai!!!
Hey what's the best brand to go with for a CAI?, also does anyone know where in Canada I can get this, or in the states, I don't mind from where as long as price is decent, and it can be shipped to me, and as long as the product is good.
I think I read a post earlier that said something about PLACE making the only true CAI, is this true?...if so where can I find it?

Actually there are more than 2 CAI brands.
There are a bunch of Ebay ones. I have an ebay CAI, but I don't have the CAI pipe installed, I decided to make it a HAI. IMO, they all do the samething, one gives better low-end than the other and vice versa. It really comes down to if you want to pay for the name or not.
At the time I bought my CAI for $60. I believe they are $40 now? My ebay HAI gave great power, and gives that same growl like all the name brand ones do. Whatever floats your boat, search ebay if your on a budget.

Hey another quick question...have any of you guys ever gotten a rear abs code on your car?...my mechanic told me today that that was what my CEL codes meant....

Most of the Ebay CAI's come in Chrome so if thats not a problem for you get that. I wanted the different color powdercoat and the name, silly as it is. Just like getting a STILLEN strut bar over an ebay strut bar. Its all up to the buyer and his/her tastes and what they want their car to look like.

i have a place racing intake and im very satified with it but the filter that i recieved with it was the monster flow and i recently switched k & n and the k & n is the better filter. It has more air flow and growls a bit louder and could feel the low end power. Next up warpspeed y.

When i ordererd my Place Racing intakes i told him that i would like the K&N filters and that i would order 2 CAI's. Well he hesitated for a second then told me that they have only a couple of K&N's in stock and he would swap the filters for me for a few bucks extra. It was a good deal for me and id rather have the K&N over the foam anyday.
