were can I buy

lostmypicks · 01-27-2006, 12:02 AM

I have a 1995 eagle talon esi and I am wanting to install a cold air intake. the I have found lots on ebay that I would get, but they dont have any with intercoolers for dsm. if you are looking for say a honda then all of the kits that you see have an intercooler with the kit. then i thought I would just buy an intercooler and fab it on to the original kit, but still I cannot find even just an "front mount intercooler for and non turbo cold air intake" I know they are out there case I have seen then on other dsm and hondas.
so if anyone knows were to get one I would love to know, I have looked everywere.

what?

Dude a CAI has nothing to do with an intercooler. Unless you have a turbo vehicle you don't even need to worry about inercooler. Just get a regular CAI for a talon esi and you will be alright.

An intercooler is to cool the air from a turbo system because of the heat the turbo generates when the air is passing through it.

well ok then it is not an intercooler. I read more into it and it says just front mount cold air intake. sory for the mix up. it sits in the front grill like an intercooler is what it is. look at this

this is for a honda but I have seen then on dsm's.

OMG! That thing is great!

rotf, thats awesome. I bet it adds more HP than just a cai too.

those r badass but u have to be very careful with those front mount intakes. they can suck in water very ez. i know people who had to replace thier motors cuz they blew rods due to water getting in.

Oi vey.... that's almost as bad as those speakers that play the fake bov noise lol.

lostmypicks · 01-27-2006, 04:53 PM

hay I just thought that they looked cool is all!
but if they have a better chance of sucking up water then I will just go with the normal filter and stuff.

Good call, that filter would fill up pretty damn quick too, and I doubt gains over a normal CAI will be very big.

it's so fucking stupid.....who the hell buys these things? who wants to hydrolock their motor that bad?

defiancy · 01-27-2006, 08:51 PM

Who drives through big puddles in an import?

But the rain would definately be the suckness if you had that intake.

2006 ECLIPSE GT · 01-28-2006, 12:50 PM

yup, one of the guys i know who blew his motor wasen't cuz of rain. it was cuz his dad wet his filter by mistake when he was watering the grass. just stick with a normal CAI and Thor06 is right theres no or very little gain over a normal CAI.

I thought that it would be cool but is just not worth killing my engine.
So I am just going to stick with the normal filter.
