I don't remember ever mentioning a CAI, there are gains with either a CAI or WAI even though minimal there is gain.
actually there arent any gains buddy, most you will get if your lucky is about 1hp so if you wanna waste 100 bucks b my guest

1HP = gains. No one expects to get 10-15HP out of an intake, to many different things are involved to even come close to those results. As far as spending $100 on an intake thats really not your problem, one thing you do get more out of this project is a nice sound in the engine bay which is one of the key things i want this mod to accomplish.

If i wanted this car to exceed 10HP then i would invest in more pricely mods that will get the job done. The same concept applies when you get an exhaust, your not going to automatically get 10HP or whatever the manufacturer promises. You need to tune your car to be able to show more then 1-3HP in gains.

Cronic thank you for voicing your opinion but its really not needed in this particular thread, when I'm already set on getting this mod.

I agree with macbeth18288 if your gonna bash something at least give a reason, preferably a better reason than you can't afford one so if you can't have one no one can....
