homemade cai
i have a question, i have a 91 240 and i was wondering if i made a cai by myself would it do the same thing as a injen intake? i found a site where they show you how to make your own cai but its for a delsol. (http://www.teamdelsol.com/ go to information/howto and its in there). does anyone know if this way would work on my car or not.

Thats one way to do it, but you can also use 2 ebay intakes(the cheap ones) Throw out both intakes and mix and match the piping. I beleive Raine has a idea on how to do it
|
o.. thanks for the info..i got two questions. i was wondering if i did it this way will it be as good as a the injen cai. and if i buy the cai extention will it do as good if i put it on stock piping?
lol im a newbie. sorry =( |
There is very little difference between the two, I'm sure you will not notice it that much
|
o alright thanks
|
PLUG! lol
...anyhoo, yeah pick up like 2 of those generic intakes on Ebay ($25-30ish each). When you get them from the old brown shorts guy (UPS) install one as directed, so you have yourself a short ram intake installed. Then, keeping everything else in place, take off only the air filter. Now grab the 2nd intake pipe and with a little twisting and meneuvering you'll get it to mate up to the MAF... then a little trimming down below to position the air filter (which would now sit under the fender). I'd show you how but my friend crashed his car so it's gone :eek: |
o alright thanks.... man i was thinking is it worth it to get injen intake or cai from injen....
