Not a downgrade at all.


Got the templates on the hood, what a pain to make even. Corner pilot holes drilled, no going back. Also ordered hood pins since part of my bracing will be cut out.

+1 Stock intake with a K&N filter is the only way to go.

Well, stock intake with a dry filter, but yeah. (wet filters don't do the MAF any good)

I've stuck with my stock intake and k&n filter just from the loads of posts of losing HP with anything else.

I wish the momentum cai was still available. That's probably the only intake i'll take over my stock box+dry filter.

I see CZP has them listed online but i wonder if it's really in stock

I wouldn't pay $200+ on a CAI just for a sound... I'd rather use that $200+ towards HFC's. Plus HP gains on CAI or SRI are subjective...
