CAI begone

Swapped back to the OE air boxes and filters last night. Immediately noticed a reduction in off idle-throttle response, but, in general, the performance is the same if a bit torquier. Meh?

You should get a t-shirt that says that.

Now I'm thinking about buying a new-gen sedan so I can get your FI exhaust and your CAI.

We can make it fit your car Wayne. Just need a big enough hammer.

I have a fair assortment of hammers and the garage is available this weekend. Come on by...

And nah, no K&N. I probably shaved 10,000km of my engine's life expectancy just by having the CAI on there for a few months.
