thrasher CAI installed
I purchased a used thrasher intake. I had to customize it some because even if I just trimmed it. It would have covered half the hole on the fender. So, as you tell I added some extra panels to take care of it.

looks good, welcome to the CAI club!
Check out my walkthrough. Is that a K&N filter, or a K&N "style" filter? http://ectinc2.members.atlantic.net/cai.htm |

I am not getting into a debate about different filter air flow, and which one is better. As far as I am concerened anything after-market is an improvment. I hope you were'nt looking for an argument: I hate to disappoint. |
Very nice fabrication job. :D
You did a good job sealing it up and mounting the PCM low enough to make full use of the fender hole. Now wrap it up with some insulation to keep it even cooler. You woudl be surprised, on a hot summer day idling in traffic, how much it heats up inside that engine bay. Can you say 200*F :!: There is nothing wrong with some other quality brands of cone filters. K&N are sometimes overrated.....and overpriced. :wink: Viva competition. :lol: S&B beat them to the punch with their open ended design and they have flow tests to prove they flow as much if not more than K&N. .....just trying to spark a few flames. 8) |
