I've seen that many of us are wanting to get the upper piece of the PR CAI to use with the Stillen and JWT intakes. So I got to thinkin'...anyway, long story short. I went up the the shop and welded up my own. Works pretty damn good for bein free. I'll post some pics on Friday.

 

hey..can i use that piece if i make my own cai? with the poor-mans cai method. can i use that piece to bypass the top resonator?

 

Yep. Hell, I'll make you one for free if you pay for shipping...let me know. I'll have the design finalized by the end of next week. The one I already did is pretty rough and my welds look like crap (although pretty damn good for my first time if you ask me).

 

um....put me on that free list too actually, if yours looks decent i'd even be willing to pay a little for it too. do you smell a side business brewing mzmtg?

 

hey hook me up on the free setup too, just let me know where & when to have it picked up and I'll have fedex ground stop by n get it. thanks!

these are prototypes right? LOL

 

Yeah these are prototypes. Let me get all the kinks worked out and I will let you guys know when I have all the info and some pics up on my homepage.

 

That's great that you are making these resonator bypass pieces. I suggest that you charge some moeny for them because it really looks like the Poor Man's CAI is starting to take off. When I bypassed the upper resonator with my HKS intake, the intake sound got much deeper. What are you using to seal the piece to the MAF? If you offered a piece of silcone hose to seal to the MAF and the quality of the piece got better, I'd say you could sell the pieces for about $30. You'd make a killing seeing that PR charges $65 for everything.

Hey dave, when you bypassed the top resonator the sound got deeper, but did it get much louder?
And ill take that free piece too. Just tell me how much for shipping.

 

The sound got deeper with the HKS, not louder. Believe me, with the Poor Man's CAI your intake won't be much louder with the resonator removed.

Ok, I'm working this all out. I'm gonna make a couple more prototypes and do some more re-fitting and I'll let everyone know how the final deal is gonna work by the end of next week.

 

don't forget that the first 4 guys that responded to this thread get the free *prototypes*. you know, for advertising purposes. you'll thank us when you're a millionaire driving a bentley and livin in the big house.

 

...um...
