Default JRSC and CAI vs ICE Box

ok ive got a question about 2 different intakes for the Jackson. What do you think would be more favorabe on a gsr at 6psi???

A CAI or a Stock integra air box convertered into an ice box??? do you think it would be more responsive and more gains with the ice box? or with the CAI. Idk if the stock box converted would be a lil restrictive for the blower as the CAI is not restrictive at all. but im not sure

Let me get your opinons on this and which to choose thanks guys/

i have an ice box, seems very restrictive with the box sealed, i just take the cover off if its not too hot outside. MUCH faster with it off, and much better top end.

I used a CAI with my JRSC until this happened:




Noiw I use a short ram, I've decided that 3-6 extra WHP isn't worth it.

Most understand that our cars are not amphibious vehicles.

The 2 or 3 hp gain that you would get from removing that cover would not make your car MUCH faster.

If you were there under the same circumstances, the same thing would have happened to you.

I've seen too many of those leak on SC'd cars. They also disrupt the flow and do more harm than good. Like I said, the extra 3-6 WHP isn't worth the hassle.
