I always thought a hacked air box was the best way to go

how can 1-2hp make your car feel boggy? i have had my injen on my car for a yr with the same old filter( which i need to change by the way) and i never felt bogginess. i wish it would bog sometimes since then i wont chirp leaving a stop. and i sit in my car for hrs at a time watchin movies with my car on sometimes and i never noticed and kind of bogginess that u talk about. maybe its just that ur car has a problem to bog from such a small differnece in hp?

wow, so i guess these posts just recycle over a period of time, huh? Seems these "which is best intake", "which is best exhaust" threads will never just die. Damn, its called the search button...

What are you talking about? I never said that the 1-2 HP accounted for the bogginess. I was just agreeing that the difference between the two in ULTIMATE HORSEPOWER is maybe 1-2 HP. All i know is I wouldn't wanna be stuck in traffic with the INJEN. Nice and cool (ambient) air for my VQ all the time with my PR CAI.

Blah. The PR CAI is superior to the Injen except for maybe looks and sound. Anyone who keeps defending the Injen is in denial, period. Just say you like the looks of it. I'm done with this.

I really don't see how two of them can have different sound when used with same filter. Also, what's wrong with the way Place Racing looks under the hood? PRCAI - Injen -

damn i really hate these kinda thread because people like you come on here and make it seem that wat ever part u buy is the best. why the **** would i be in denial for? u could think wat u want, and say wat u want cause this is a free country but dont u dare say that i bought something just cause it looked nice. u have no ******* clue about me so keep your thoughts about me to your damn self. and to whomever first posted this...go out and buy watever it is that u want and stop asking which one is better cause all u get is 2-3 pages of crap like this.

dude, calm down, take a step back and realize this is the INTERNET. Calm down man, no need for all the profanity, it'll just get you in trouble. Everyone knows what happens in these threads...which is why i posted what i posted. This has been beaten to death, and then some. If the original thread starter doesnt have the search feature (dunno if its still disabled for non-donators) then he needs to donate and get the search feature. It will cut down so much on these repeated beaten to death subjects that only produce flame wars and barely pass any good knowledge. And to all with questions like this, read the FAQs, stickies, and search. Its really simple. I searched and read for almost a month before i posted, its not hard...

Bloody hell mate, calm yourself down... You think I should just go out and buy whatever I want and not ask any questions? I posted because, as Eric says, I don't have access to the search function, and as soon as I'm setup to donate, I will... But until then I'll keep my friggin questions to myself so that you don't have to look at them?! Be serious!

I come to the org because apart from being full of helpful people, I respect a lot of opinions here, and that's what I wanted to see in this post... I wasn't doing it to get on your **** mate... Read the original post again... I just wondered what the majority opinion on CAI's were... That's all...

Clearly no one's interested in posts like this, that's why it's been viewed 800+ times...

Hmmm...since you are so "informed" please tell us how the Injen is better other than these 3 reasons:

1. No need to drill a hole
2. Nice bling factor
3. Louder intake roar

Thanks.
