Default New CAI!!!

Yea I know I have always said they are not worth it but I now have the K&N FIPK :banana:

And now I hate to say this but it does seem like it added some extra HP.I don't know for sure but it seem's to me like the Accufab TB/PL needed the extra air intake it is getting.The throttle response seem's alot better.

I installed it Thursday and would have pic's but it's been raining almost non stop here all week (again) and I never noticed how damn dirty my engine was getting and don't want pic's of a dirty engine to show everyone.

intakes by themselves add a little horse but when it is combined with a full exhaust and engine work it adds more and is good for the car

Find the CD2 Engine Cleaner kit (Pep Boys, Autozone, Etc...), it's a two part cleaner/degreaser and finish. Works really well.

No problem! I haven't done mine in a while, but it's been raining here a lot lately and it just doesn't make sense to clean it yet.

Your throttlebody and plenum is nice and shiney. Mine got stained when I was cleaning it with a heavy duty degreaser. Someday ill get some polish and fix it up but everything else is super clean.
lol
