What CAI to use on 00VI swap?

I am getting ready to put a 00VI on my 95 maxima. I already have a PR style CAI and would like to keep the CAI set up as opposed to a short ram. What CAI can I use that uses the same hole that I already have for the PR style intake? Thanks for any help.

You can keep the PR you have but need to use the stock "accordian" piece in place of the silicone coupler from the TB to the midpipe IIRC.

If that is the case then I already have those parts.

That's correct. We recently did the exact same setup on another members car. All we had to do was add that accordion piece.

yeah me too, im using the accordian piece and a A32 frankencar midpipe and I dont like the setup with oovi. wasnt the original frankencar midpipe straight without a bend for the 4th gen ? im thinking they were and then later they made the curve in the pipe.
