Hey Im wondering about CAI's do you need to cut to get the cold air extention down by the grill ?

Im debating on CAI or regular Z-tube....hmmm

So many debates over z-tube and pop or z-tube and k&n, or CAI or CAI w/ ztube.... =T

Yes i searched about the install.

CAI Install yielded nothing.

 

as far as i know cutting is not needed

 

NO cutting

 

Coolio, now to figure out the definitive answer.

Pop charger and Z tube

or Stillen CAI w/ Ztube...

 

stillen

supercharger

 

lol

 

No cutting needed, BUT you will have to remove the inner splash guard by the lower valance grill. And let me tell you it is a P-I-T-A!

You're best option is the Stillen intake w/Z-tube. You can also go with Stillen's Z-tube as well (cheaper, but it has more of a curve to it, BUT it won't rub against your AC lines like the Z-tube).

I installed a popcharger on a buddy's car and I'm not a big fan of its design. The heatshield is kinda flimsy and those connectors from the airduct to the heatsheild are a PITA to put on.

 

LoL +1

I want to avoid doing major mods to my car. On my last car, a 98 240sx I put an RB25det into it, too major of an upgrade, more of a headache but a sure brain thrill

 

On the stillin CAI, We're talking about a cold air intake or a cold air intake box?


Im confused their website shows a product that says stillen CAI with Z-tube, but it looks like the cold air box, as opposed to the cold air intake? someone clairfy this please?

 

I believe it's a cold air "box"
