Yes another intake <?> for the board.

To those who have went from the Cai to hybrid or the other way around..how the the sound differ>? Is the Cai lower or louder>? I have a WSP hybrid setup right now. yes for the price it is the deal right now.

thanks in advance,


Dale

 

My cai is louder from outside of the car because the filter is outside. when I had hybrid, it seems louder from sitting inside the car. CAI has more of a deeper tone

 

hey KSU1998, did u have to move the battery to fit the WSP hybrid? I noticed that the ebay and frankencar hybrid is stright, while the WSP has a bend on the upper section. How big is the filter that comes with the WSP? I am looking into a hybrid intake myself, and any info will be great.

 

dont be money spenders, by the K-n off ebay, w/0ut the upper, and make it yourself

 

Yeah, but you don't get the velocity stack or venturi if you go the ebay route.

I went from CAI to Hybrid. CAI sounded much better. Deep cool growl sound. The Hybrid has a more cam sound to it, like you're feeling the 24 valve head Also, the CAI, when it was quiet, was dead quiet. Cruising at 80 mph, you heard nuthin. The Hybrid, you hear a little bit.

To JsL...

It is a tight azz fit, the K&N is almost against the fender, but it does work, If you havent ordered your WSP CAI yet...tell them you just want the hybrid set-up, it's cheaper and I think Dallas told me if I need a shorter bypass he would trade me...so the hybrid setup would have a shorter piece..more like the PR set up.

Thanks for the info... I would rather have a soild metal vs. plastic ebay stuff, I did that crap on my accord...no more of that

cant beat $155 for a CAI...unless you buy pipe on Ebay and bend it yourself...J/K

later,

Dale

 

do you guys have pictures of the hybrid.

 

What i really want to do is just get a velocity stack and a BIG KN filter and make the upper section myself just like a guy did on the ORG. The problem is that i don't know where to buy just a velocity stack for a decent price, where to get the rubber sections for connections and don't know what size filter to use. I was second thinking about WSP because I was worried about a not "plug and play" kit, I thought I had to move the battery or fabricate somthing, but thank you KSU1998 for your info. JsL

 

Wouldnt a stillen hybrid be better than a wsp cold air intake?

 

The stillen only comes with a filter and velocity stack and it costs 200. The WSP comes with piping, filter and a cheaper MAF adaptor for 155. I would love to have a stillen hybrid, but that would cost 355 and for a poor 18 year old college student, thats a lot of money. I was hoping i can get a velocity stack for cheap and buy a big KN filter and ghetto-ly remove the accordian section and resonator.

 

I bought the stillen intake for $100 shipped. I was thinking about getting the upper tube for warpspeed and converting it to hybrid but im not sure if the gains are worthwhile.

 

Wow...That is pretty cheap for a stillen one. Was that new or used? Where did u get it? JsL

 

BTW...KSU1998 can u please post pics of your intake. Thanx

 

Bought it used with 1000 miles on it. by the way JSL are my initials

 

Guys I will get the dig camera out this weekend...I am one of the first WSP Hybrid setups...so a picture is worth 1K words..I may have the ramair and heat sheild done as well...I am going to build the ram/shield to high quaility, possibly sell them on the org. If I do it I do it right...my old accord was the last of my halfass intake deals...save up, the k&N getto intake is for civics, I too am in grad school so I feel your money pain. BTW WSP is allowing us to order the hybrid only setup(i believe) can you say under $155, jump on it..!

off topic....I just got back from the grude night(track) I saw a corrola with a additional trunk lid, I mean wing..heres the good stuff, he had drag wheels on...later he took them off, alot of work when you are running 19.7 and a 20.1 all night LOL

take care,

Dale

 

Mr blank..

I may help you...this weekend I am going to try all the options from PoP only...hybrid w/ and w/o the accordian bypass..I think the best setup is the K&N with the bypass(thats the setup I have seen on Maxs running 14.6's)...the air is smoothed out, they sell this setup for LT1 vette(ect) and all that so it is proven...however worth the money or not>?>?>?

<research, think, learn, try, complete, then tell others>

You can get a used Stillen or JWT for $100, then do what this guy did for $15;

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....ICS+AND+intake


With all that done, you've spent $115 and you got POP filter, venturi (or velocity stack), and you've removed the resonator between the MAF and TB.

$115 Hybrid

the accordian piece is still on the in those pics....Why not lose that as well...>? that is part of the airpathway that slows the flow... well I will know soon, tring out the intake options this weekend

Hey, I noticed that on the WSP site where they show a pic of the CAI for the max, the upper portion of the CAI is really long, compared to Cattman, PR or Weapon R. It looks like its nearly 3 times longer. Is that the actual upper pipe, or is that just a pic of a CAI for another car? If the pipe was really that long, then you would definitely have to relocate the battery right? Take a look here http://www.warpspeedperformance.com/maxcai.htm

 

so the hybrid is loud when cruising around?

 

Can be if you want it too anyone who wants to hear the hybrid just come to the meet on the 9th of june in NJ and you can hear mine. if you want to see what it looks like go to my homepage.

My hybrid(wsp) is a tight fit with the battery. I may trade the CAI piece for a shorter ram offered by Dallas at WSP. If I was going to do it agian I would buy a hybrid Kit from WSP. I have too many girls(not complaining), cars(see my other posts) and school work to do all the work on my intake/heatshield.

papasmurf has a different setup altogether, requirering bat. relocation....I really thought it looked good too >!!



If there was 52 hours in a day I would be happy...also if you could buy sleep in a bottle I would buy it by the case..

take care guys,

Dale

 

go to my thread entitled "video" if you wanna hear the hybrid
