Who wants a CAI that actually works? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'll wait and see but curious.

No, the one that makes a baJILLION hp is made in china. We do not have that technology here yet. How else can they make those little cars go?

Like someone said, posting here is safer with pics & data. Some people get nervous without.

I too would like to see the numbers. I would venture a guess at least 3+lbs lighter than stock.

Tube, box, filter vs tube, accordian, piano box, & filter. It gots to be less!

Just weighed my stock unit and it's 7.5+ pounds

The tube is 4" polished aluminum with a shorty filter. I can't see it weighing any more than stock.

Could be made it china, didn't ask, don't care. It works, looks good and helps my car breathe. What more do you want for a couple hundred $$'s?

Hey, I will certainly give this unit a fair chance. Can't wait to see it.

We're not knocking your unit, we're knocking the Chinese

oops, that sounded racist... I love Chinese. Pepper Beef especially.

Are you the guy that went to the Las Vegas dyno day with the 4th gen guys?

scrming · 10-23-2009, 05:28 AM

23 HP gain sounds too good to be true... and you know what they say about that! And yes, I know you said you seen it with your own eyes..... but how was the testing done?

Jannetty Racing did a big CAI shootout last Sunday and here are the results:

http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?k...=1&output=html

The biggest gain was 15.9 HP and that was with a CAI that lean the car out and pinged! Next best one was 13.1 HP... so you can see 23 HP seems like a stretch... I would need to see this unit independently tested following the same procedure Jannetty used...

d69chris · 12-18-2009, 04:47 PM

2010, did you get your CAI yet???

SLVRPHX · 12-18-2009, 11:04 PM
