i got a custom cai installed today
they used a 3" tube from home depot and they connected it to the adapter tha i originnaly used for the intake and they connected it iwth a clamp.

then they ran that all the way behind the fans of the rad and there they put a cone filter..
then followed by that they put a water guard like a metal sheet under the car where the filter is so water doesnt get in..

overall
gains are deffinitly there...
this is soo much better then the oscai...
email me up for questions.

so heres another Intake idea to get real cold air. What if you cut a hole in your firewall and ran the intake inside the cabin? shure alot colder than anywhere outside the car.......

If the filter is behind the radiator and its fans, its getting hot air from them...

Sarcasm? On this board?

Once the radiator fans come on, you've got 180+ degree air blows into the filter. You're also getting a ton of radiant heat from the radiator and exhaust manifold at all speeds.

hmm i have a huge hole in my bumper (click on the link in my sig to see it. i'll take a close-up of it later)

maybe i can run a tube up to my pop from there. would that work?

RedMax95

oh ya well im gunna get some tubing and put the filter in front of my ac inside the car, and control small forced induction by the power of the ac!

do the fans really blow to the nose of the car?? That's friggin wierd because when you're driving, the wind is coming in the engine and then the fans would be trying to blow out towards the front causing a surge of gray matter to form and maybe making your car leap into a worm hole into another dimension.

Someone help me, I'm friggin bored. Work sucks

No,the fans pull air through the radiator.

If your car has a tendency to leap through space and time or position itself either in one place at all times or in all places at one time, tighten you gas filler cap.

Worked for me.

kingston

Oh it's the gas filler cap causing that problem? Damn, I forgot to check that

Dave B

Doesn't matter which way the fans blow, you'll still be getting EXTREMELY hot air coming across the filter.
