The Only CAI/SRI Thread You Should Ever Post In

[timot_one]

I used the K&N filter cleaner kit on my filter.  You should be fine with that.

7 of those black snap things

I HATE those things! I've already broken the heads of like 3 of them!

[NWINNIE34]

yeahh... haha

also when you get yur fujita set up... it has instructions on how to clean
K&N uses an oil based cleaner while the fujita only recommends using warm soap and water...and just make sure it dries well...
read up today when you pick it up

also... enjoy yur complimentary NOS... remember to drink it and not put it in yur gas tank !
i went on like  a 3 month binge drinking that shit once i got my CAI....

you can take off driver wheel and unscrew couple bolts and you can take filter out. i usualy do it when changing headlight or foglight bulbs

ok kool. thanx for all the replies. im actually picking up a used one. so i wont have any instructions or anything. i guess the only thing to look for is how dirty the filter is, if the bracket that secures the intake is cracked, and that the rubber piece that connects to the TB is in good shape along with the clamps and! of course make sure is has the MAF sensor cutout. lol anything else? im picking it up tonight. I cant wait!

I wish I knew more about intakes before i got my SRI. a CAI would have obviously been a better option. I'm happy with my K&N though, plus it has a heatshield so it's not too bad. Plus it sounds nice.

[fabulous010]

i picked up the CAI. its looks pretty good. except that it had a gash near the bottom. it didnt penetrate through onto the inside. i guess it was rubbing against a braket or something metal. do you think it was a bad choice. im thinking about just wrapping the area with hockey tape to prevent further rubbing.

[thisaznboi88]

yeah i had them same problem with my fujita. Just get some 2side 3m tape n put it there. Stops it from moving around n rubbing on the metal. U know how flex happy our motor is. lol GL with the installation. Make sure to disconnect the batter. if you didn't take out the resonator yet. You will need to take the whole bumper off it is just easier. Also have ur radio code ready if your radio has the security on it.

i might install a rubber coupler on the pipe to avoid the intake pipe rubbing with the car's body:

[thisaznboi88]

looks good man. Your going to love the intake. I have it n it gives a nice deep growl. Ricer get scared with it revs up

[fabulous010]

i just installed the intake! it took me about an hour. i took my time because i had already worked 10hours today. its not much louder than my old set up. it idles quietly, and on wot at low rpms sound about the same as my old set-up (k&n drop in filter and deleted resonator) BUT... when you wot at high rpms its gets LOUD. i like it, but we will see in time if i will get annoyed by it. im afraid it will draw alot of attention...

[fabulous010]

hey jeff you know that cover you have next to the resonator. i put the back to use as some sort or heat shield from the front of the motor. like that u suck more air from the bottom. it wont make a difference, but you want the suction to flow from the bottom and not from the front of the motor. IDK

[timot_one]

I'm sure that if you don't drive like a jackass, you won't draw as much attention.
