Injen CAI w video

I installed this on the weekend. Nice to hear the turbo breat with more audible intake and blowoff noise now. It threw a code upon initial fire up and subsequent rip around town but the computer worked itself out and I haven't seen it since.

Sweetness! Do us up a sound clip... Even just with the hood open, parked and free revving if you have someone to hold the camera for you

It adds a little pick-up and go on the HP and TQ side but the sound it gives off is amazing. I never got jus the CAI numbers on my car i put the ZZP Hi-Flo Downpipe on at the same time.

I can upload a video after work today if I get time.

Evil-Bee is right tho about the HP and TQ numbers, they might be up slightly but not really that noticeable. The sound of the turbo is where the money is spent on this. Plus I like the look of it under the hood. Will go nicely with blue Mishimoto silicon tubing on the catch cans and aluminum expansion tank.

Do you have a code scanner? Or HP Tuners? Or EFI Live? Or Diablo? Because I'm really curious to know what code you popped! Hope it wasn't the same code Mishi popped in their testing!

If you have a go pro, mount it in the box next to the filter! That would be fun, and really exaggerate the intake noises. If you don't have a go pro, or similar type camera, I'd recommend buying one. I know you can find some cheap non-go pro cams out there now a days for under $50.

I don't have a scanner or tuner at the moment. I was wondering if it was the same as Mishi as well. I know their r & d was extensive and am still considering getting their CAI just because of how well they explained their processes.

From what I remember tho their code wasn't thrown until after a long drive of about 1400 miles. I'll certainly let you guys know if another one pops up after some time on the car.

My brother has a go-pro we use for mounting on cars so I may get him to come over and we can get a good sound clip. Under load it sounds great! I was "blown" away by the increase in turbo noise (get it!?). It really gives the car some personality on the road when compared to V6 Camaros.

I also dig the shiny intake!

I had a good two month wait for them to produce more but it was worth it I would say.

Fairly certain my code was because I forgot to disconnect the battery.

Nice! I'm hoping the 'openish' style of the Mishimoto intake allows for some great sounds as well, looking forward to the vid if it happens

That is also the reason I'm sticking mostly with Mishimoto... The R&D as well as the testing seems in depth!... They've also treated me quite well
