CAI Intake Upgrade
After waiting over 2 years for Vararam to release their 2012 LFX intake, and getting scammed repeatedly (Scamaram), I decided to buy a CAI Intake. I was never happy that they wanted $400 for one new, so I got one used from a C5 member for $300. I had to "paint it black" literally as it had been painted blue by the previous owner, and it took a few weeks for the weather to clear up for that. It took a few weeks after that for it to stop raining enough to install it.
I decided to record some before/after sound samples for those who are interested. I was previously running a stock intake with an aftermarket Green Filter, a VMAX PTB, and a SOLO Catback Exhaust.
Here is the cold start video of the above configuration:
