What is the best CAI? Work best with y-pipe?
#2
In my opinion, in terms of performance the best would be the PR CAI or the Cattman CAI. The OSCAI would be not too far back. Both types will give you good gains with the y-pipe. The OSCAI is the cheapest and you can try to hook one up to see if you like it. If you want something more, then you can go to the real CAI. The OSCAI will be the quieter one.

I was in the same mind set as you DeaZal. I kept saying to myself, "I don't want to cut a hole in my car!" After a while, I got the need for speed and got the CAI. The cutting isn't too bad. You'll never see it because the hole is well hidden. If I can change my mind so can you... and I'm VERY stubborn about things.

Its been sitting here in my room for 2 months. I'm trying to build up the nerve to cut that hole. Probably next week.

You think I'll be okay if I use a 3.5 inch hole saw? Looks like this whole is 3.25.

What exactly should be used to cut the cap off on the stock intake for an oscai and what diamtere is the pipe? Also, There seems to be a plastic deflector piece on the bottom of the engine bay, will I have to cut through that as well, cuz I don't see how to reroute it to an opening....

no fun.
I Just got my prcai yesterday and installed it today. Dont worry about the hole. I think that was the easiest part of the install. Nothing lined up right. I had to mickey mouse the battery tray in. The instructions sucked and on my first run one of the clamps snapped when I was driving in the city. The tube after the first senser popped out. There was no where to pull over so i drove about a half hour with NO FILTER!!! FAUK. So I ended up stalling out at every stop light.Havent had time to fix it yet but I havent drove it since. Am I in touble?????????????
