Just a quick question. And yes i have done searches... I have a pop charger on my Max, but i want to eliminate the black box (sorry dont know the name of it) that is located between the TB and the MAS. I have seen CAI packages that contain that peice. Just wondering if i can get it by itself.

Call up Place Racing, they'll know what you're talking about. It should be around $70.

I've heard great things about Place Racing's CAI!!

However, how does Cattman's CAI perform in comparison?

Thanks for the info....

its the same thing..

What is the purpose of that black box thing anyway?

resonator to make it quieter I believe

Cattman CAI is top-of-the-line.


CAI ownz POP hands down in sound/low end performance.

I second that ... when you have a chance, look at the number of air intake resonators on the VQ35 engine in a 2002 Altima.

Imagine using a pop-charger or CAI on that .... hisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

POP = No hiss, just a low bum bum bum bum

CAI = Turbo like ****ed off Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!

Craig loves his CAI, but there are other alternatives that are just as good (Modified Pop) :P I bought the pipe that goes between the MAF and Throttle body from Place Racing a week ago and it definitely made the sound better and may have helped power some.

You're increasing airflow by reducing restrictions, esecially eliminating resonators.

You're bound to get a hiss with a pop-charger ... or will you not?

Intakes are good, but if you really want a hiss get a Ypipe.

Stillen Y hiss starts @ 3.5Krpm, only way i could hear hiss on my intake is when I open the hood and almost put my ear on the POP, although when I press the gas pedal, the POP makes a ttssssswhoooshh sound, kinda kewl though

the cattman cai is the plane racing cai.........=) - if u want to get rid of the box........you have two options......get a pop charger - 70 bucks........or get a cold air intake -200 bucks......... the cold air intake costs more but it is a much better value
