Well first of all they are supposedly just starting to ship as of the 5th. Secondly they have in the works, as stated in small print, a ram air radiator cover that will direct flow from grill directly to there CAI. I am waiting to see how it works out for others, as well as the radiator cover design to be finished. Here is the link. Good luck

Yeah, I have been waiting to hear more about the "fresh" air housing and just how it routes air from the grill to the pipe. Looks nice, a fresh idea and the cost is only $369.00 USD. I want to try one out.

If you read on down the description. It seems that they did try more pipe (Larger airflow) but the system is limited by the throttle body itself. May be an interesting combe with the new BBK TB and this CAI.

Oh yeah, plus the fact that they include the hardware to relocate the Overflow tank to the spot where the stock filter box used to sit. This really cleans up the engine bay and looks sweet. With the aluminum tank and aluminum PS tank replacements, that would look awesome.

i dont see how it works at all...

"cold" air intake + sitting right behind REALLY HOT radiator and taking in air that comes thru that radiator = 20hp and 15tq without a tune?

someone balance this equation for me...?


looks cool, and if radiator were somehow somewhere else, id love to do a ram air setup in that spot

Maybe if it was turned to go above the engine and in conjunction with a shaker type hood? Seems like you would get a ram-air effect, along with cooler air...

Good point about cool air. This design lookest great from a unrestricted point of view. I'm concerned about hot air getting into the intake. A ram air system would help out.

They state that they will be releasing a "ram" air cover at the end of the month. They relocated the overflow tank and the new shroud is supposed to pull air directly from the front grill. Plenty of room if you look under the radiator shroud as someone else had me do.
