i have a K&N never compared it to the trd but i heard its better... but idk

 

x2 I'd hate to spend the money on it and then it not be any better.

 

lol, you suck. already purchased one. should be coming in on wednesday

you got k&n? nice. maybe you and alex can help me install mine. all i know is trd is cold air and k&n is hot air. but they give the same amount of horses i believe

 

umm nah man they are both CAI... why would you want a hot air intake?!?!

all a CAI is is just a bigger tube leading to an isolated filter so the air flows better to the engine... thus colder air. the stock ones are just designed to WORK... but an aftermarket is designed to enhance performance...

guess it depends what you get

so my guess is cai is better for racing but wai is better for fuel

 

woo! just got it in today! anyone wanna help me install it TODAY?

 

I'm booked from today through Friday at work. But we can probably crank it out Saturday if you want.

I think you're a little mistaken about the warm air intake issue. Martin is right, warm air is exactly what you don't want. The colder the air, the more oxygen-dense it is, which leads to cleaner and more powerful combustion. That said, what you might be reffering to is a short ram air intake.

Technically, all intakes are ram intakes. But most people classify CAI differently (even though by principle its the same). CAI are known for having longer piping, placing the intake further away from the motor so as to avoid sucking up hot air. Ram intakes are usually a straight pipe, close to the motor, but suffer from sucking up warm air caused by the hot engine.

I don't know about trucks or naturally aspirated motors, but we have 4 turbo'd cars in my family. Depending on the length of the pipe, CAI are usually the safest bet for power increases on turbo'd vehicles (again, depends on the piping as well).

 

what the eph guys... i already installed it, guys took too long to reply
sounds like a turbo. it's pretty sweet. hey michael, i'll come over to the car wash one day so you can take a look at it. see how it sounds and what not.
