12 HP gain from CAI
i have a heat shield cai in my var and when i was done building it i noticed great gains.i want to dyno or test it on the track except my rims are too heavy. i think i might race them with and with out my rims and see the difference
Just a thought, but since the V6 is a bigger engine with more displacement, wouldn't it make sense that it would have more benefit from a CAI than the I4? All of these mods are kinda based on percentages, more or less, so it seems to me that a larger engine SHOULD see a greater benefit from more airflow.
Of course, I am a bit new to this sort of scene, so I can be wrong....

Skitzo- It's actually based on how restrictive the stock intake is. If the Stock intake on the V6 is better than the I4, it can show smaller gains or no gains. Either that, or a poorly designed and inadequatly tested CAI would show little/no gains.

The installation of that CAI was an easy job.I've got my filter and connect it with the pvc pipe(75mm)at the place where i want it.I drilled to holes one for the air meter and the other for the oil....That was it.Also my filter has an opening of 75-80mm so with the Throttle body of 54mm it makes the venturi effect.
These are pics of my filter right under the Evo VI hole is the CAI:

Ya wen is the Shark Racing CAI come'n out????
How much hp will that truly give out???
I made a custom CAI all i used was a civic model and cut it down till it fit directly in the place of the stock one.... And it worked:p
But i want a real one........
