K&N Intake
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up...
When I first got my car back in June I dropped it off at K&N for them to work on designing the CAI. It took them a lot of research and a lot of cars (they had mine for a week and I know they had quite a few more v6 owners drop their cars off for testing as well). I called yesterday to follow up and get a status update and I was told they just released the final part to their production line and they should have something ready for me within 6 to 8 weeks. So its still a ways out but at least there is a solid time frame now. |

I look forward to seeing what they have in store for us. |

I was reading in a different thread that a CAI would effect the sound of the engine/exhaust...
Is this true? |

I'm no enthusiast, just trying to learn as much about my car as possible.
If you had your choice, would you rather have the K&N when it comes out or the Airaid? Let's say gains in HP and torque were equal. |

Pardon my naivety again, but adding a CAI voids the warranty, correct? If I ever had an issue and had to go to the dealer, I could just slap on the stock intake?

I like the Airaid so I ordered one.
I know nothing about the K&N so I can't judge it .... Does anyone have any info. or photos of the K&N ? |

Now to make it easier if you have warranty claim related to the engine it isn't a bad idea to put the stock piece back on but strictly speaking it isn't required. |
