    What are your mods. usually, CAIs don't do anything for you and can actually make your car run worse. Usually you are better off with just a better flowing air filter.

    could do what I did....3" plumping pipe and a $25 pod filter. Buth then again. I'm N/A and blown so I wasn't wasting my money on a K&N NUFFIN!

    Not trying to flame but are there getting to be more of these threads? Like this "Hey what does everyone think of a CAI, Manual boost controller, bov, and 20 psi? Will this be a good combination of parts? My car is stock right now."
