Hehe actually I do. Since its only a stage 1 I still have my Injen CAI in there. Heard its alot louder than having a Stillen CAI due to the sound being amplified by the long metal tube.

That would be nuts, I have never heard one with the Injen. I have the Stillen CAI and it's very loud.

I agree, I have the stage I with the Injen CAI, and damn it is loud. Drive by someone with their windows down or walking on the street and heads turn everytime some people even stop me to ask what that sound is.

Wait, so the Injen/Nismo CAI's would work with the S/C? What about stage 2, 3, and 4? Seems like the Stillen "CAI" or JWT Popcharger would be better. In my mind, a short ram intake would mean the air is getting to the blower faster, so less lag?

when you go stage 2 you have to relocate the coolant overflow bottle.that now goes on the driver,s side where the hole for the cold air intake is.btw when i had my stage 1 ill never forget this,i saw a guy walking under an overpass and as soon as i got to the begining of the overpass,i nailed the gas and watched him jump at least 3 feet.i laughed my *** of the rest of the day.

I still like making people on the sidewalk jump out of the way from time to time.

So does anybody has Stillen Stage 2 SC with Injen CAI? I am curious about this set up. Will this set up actually work? Other than being louder, what other effect will this set up gets?

you cannot use a long tube cai with the stillen stage 2.read above post from me.and i hate to say this but long tube cai,s are nothing but a waist of money (i wish i new that a long time ago) they are total torque loosing junk.

What if you moved the radiator overflow over to where the intake would be since the filter is down in the fender? Seems like you could either do that or get a smaller overflow and put it over there. It would be cheaper than getting a new intake.

As his pic shows, of course the longtube CAI's will work. What I'm asking is more along the lines of whether that style or the short ram style is better from a performance/efficiency standpoint...

i've had the stock intake before the cai went it. the only difference i could notice is it got louder, a lot louder.
even if there is a gain/loss it can't be more than 1-3hp.
