Injen CAI

I have an 01 Eclipse Spyder GT manual tranny

I am going to purchase a CAI. So far Injen seems to look like the best. I thought that i heard people have dynoed there car and got 11 more WHP. Is this true and where is the least expensive place to purchase it.

Also, i have a basic knowledge of cars, basic tools and common sense. Will i be able to installl this and how long will it take?

Re: Injen CAI

their not really worth the HP to $ ratio. just go online and buy one from e-bay, or if you really want to save money make ur own out of PVC, that will work just as well. save the money and spend the difference on hooker's and booze.

Re: Injen CAI

i might agree with coyote except for the PVC part. dont use PVC pipe unless its the industrial strength. regular PVC pipe will helt

Re: Injen CAI

The reality of any intake is that manufacturers claim anywhere from 10-30hp, but in the real world, you will get 3-5. All intakes are moderately equal, by going with an Injen you are going to spend a few extra hundred on a sticker...go with a $40 ebay intake, you wont notice a difference performance-wise. If you are worried about filtration, get the cheap intake kit off ebay, and then buy a K&N cone filter and attach it to that...you're still looking at under $100 and the same exact results.
