CAI vs RAI?

[IMPORTSRULE]

i'm wondering about cold air intakes vs ram air intakes.. i've heard that cold air intakes can screw with your engine and in the winter it would take forever to "warm up". is that really a problem? so for up here should i go with ram air or cold air?

Thanks

performance differences between the two, especially on an import, will be fairly minimal. Only real problem you run into while running a CAI is you run the risk of hydrolocking. odds of this happening are fairly low. you would have to go through a pretty damn big puddle but it is still a possibility. the whole taking forever to warm up in the winter thing, no.

It all depends on the car. If is a NA 4-banger, save your money and leave it stock.

Faber, get your stock shit on there STAT.

ram air=faster throttle response, cai= cooler intake temps, stock=more mpg.

Just get a drop in filter(like an K&N) and be done with it.

If your building an N/A setup import i honeslty wouldn't waste my money. most i would pay is for an ebay intake. In all honesty though, that's more worth the money then going and buying an AEM or ingen setup. $40 > $300 for a 2.5hp increase.

I say Interfooler, 43whp gain, guranteed

You need a turbonator

[Rexwagon]

is this for your wrx?

if so, waste of money. Just keep the stock airbox

just get like a k&n drop in air filter? i'm also going to do the 08+ silencer delete on my wrx. you basically just cut a hole in the bottom of the air intake box. its before the filter and every one that has done it hasnt had any problems.

run a cold air in the fender well with no splash guards and then drive it in the rain.

(I saw a kid in a honda a couple weeks ago in Moorhead with this - water literally running off his filter)
