CAI advice needed

[EnVeE 02]

Ok so im going to order my CAI right after Christmas, but im not sure what brand to go with. Any input would be great. The only ones I really know being any good are Doctor Speed Stg 3, MMS CAI, and MPR or whatever it is. Any word on these 3 brands? Thanks alot.

They are all pretty much the exact same thing. Whoever you pick, make sure it's a company that is a sponsor of this site.

I would suggest go with whoever is cheapest, as long as the piping they use is aluminum and not mild steel. I dont beleive anyone used MS anymore... you just dont want your ish to rust.

All of them are going to be virtually the same design, I had the APoC which technically started it all off, but I dont John carries his intakes anymore. I say go with Doctor Speed.

Hell if your crafty, you can probably build your own... or take it to a shop that does mandrel bending and have them make a one peice, Ive seen it done before and its pretty pimp.

Well the MMS CAI is like a bellowed hose w/a cone filter.

The MP Racing CAI is what I have on my car. Its high quality and you get to pick the color of the couplers. The MPR Stage 3 (CAI) Intake kit is $167.99+ shipping. I'd say go with that cuz you can get a tune from him while you're at it plus IIRC his is cheaper and more readily available.

I really hate to say it but although the MP Racing CAI "looks" the same it is not... unlike the other compnaies we use reinforced 3ply silicone couplers and stainless steel "liner" clamps.. also our filters are S&B Powerstack inverted cone fiters instead of standard K&N cone filters..

*iagree*

This subject has been discussed more times than Sik's mom been laid! For the newbs wondering what that number is, think of it like the national debt, its already in the trillions and keeps going up.

Bottom line, any CAI you get will deliver the same performance as the others.
