Anyone know where I can get a 3.25" hole saw to install my PR CAI? I got a 3" from Craftsman, but I don't think it is going to work for me.

Also, I heard that the engine light or something stays on after you install the intake. Is there anyway to avoid this?

I hear most get their hole saws from Sears (eg Craftsman). I know Lowe's and Home Depot have a good selection.

If you live near somebody on the board, they may loan one to you since you use it for about 10 minutes.

Thanks Mdeal. I think I'll try Home Depot tomorrow. I would ask Hogie or Max Performance if I could borrow one from them, but I'm not sure when I'm going to put it in. Probably a week before Maxus.

That and I haven't met him yet. Was hoping to catch him at LSP meet but oh well.

Also thanks for compliments Mdeal. But I don't know if you would be saying that if the bird sh*t on the hood came out on the pic!

You can get one at a Sears or Home Depot. They usually have them.

And when I helped RBa install his CAI, there wasn't any check engine light afterwards. Just becareful with all the sensors and you should have no problem. And we were pretty rough with his sensors, banging them around and such. No check engine light yet.

Be especially careful with the MAF tube... I broke mine while installing my CAI... They cost around $400 to replace.
