only for sound, and looks, in hp increase not much, not more than 5hp if any,and if properly installed.

but any gain is good

from the INFO section, in ambient room temp, an intake (short ram) will NOT increase performance... its really the sound... proven fact an SRI on a 5s/7a will bank you less than 1hp... a CAI is a different story.
yes but the short ram sounds so much better!!!! biggrin.gif

How much is the difference in the CAI, i went from stock to a CAI and only felt a little different. seems to be good when its frreeeeezzzing out and my engine is warm, is that cause the air my CAI is sucking in is so far from the engine and its ice! cold and the engine is warm? thanks-
