    I came into a little extra cash, and I'm gonna knock out some mods on my list. I'm gonna go ahead and get my suede interior FINISHED, finally!!! :D And then I'm gonna finish a couple small stereo touches in my trunk (new amp and custom panels). Along with getting all the braided hoses and AN fittings for under my hood. :D Looking forward to all of these, but I have a big dilemma on the last one......I want a new CAI to really compliment what I've done under my hood. And I'm TOTALLY TORN between three. Stack's new Bullet, Arrington's new CF unit, and a custom one from ???? Which one would you choose????

    Arrington

    Ultimately, the one I REALLY want is Cam's Twin Setup, but I just can't swing the $$$$ due to all the other mods I'm trying to accomplish this spring. So these are the three I'm down to. Opinions?? A 90mmTB and retune will be coming within the next few months. But for now, I'm just doing the CAI.......HELP!!!! :ilovesrtc:

    No doubt hard decision for sure. They are all great! I'm still partial to the "air hammer", but due to funds I found a used K & N that is pretty nice for now!

    Stack FTW. Take it to a paint shop and have something custom done to it.

    Of the 3 you show the Arrington is my choice for looks.....if I was looking at just power I would probably go with the Stack just because it should pull cooler air...

    Chase, are you WHACKED or what?

    DO NOT use the three top notch items you listed...

    Save yourself 300 bucks and get this bad boy for only 23 bucks. Gauranteed 50hp gains and 20mpg increase...

    The TURBONATOR!!!!!!!!!

    larry - choice three is also a fender mounted filter. draws air from the same spot as the stack and relocates the IAT if chosen to...... outside the engine bay.:grin:

    Yep Chris, I know dat...I just thought the Stack was purdier....though I didnt see enough of the 3rd choice to say for sure..........but now that the ice age has started instead of global warming a real CAI aint that important..:cold:

    Heh, wait... that regular ole looking rubber on the custom... compared to the finished angle box on the Arrington (the 90mm one)? Stack looks really nice and it is in the fender... but it's not carbon fiber.


    Buwahahahaha. It looked like you might be narrowing down your choices. Wouldn't want to let that happen :D
