ok why is it so god forsaken difficult to find a damn cai for my car? i mean i could always just retrofit a different model but still! anybody got any sort of explanation for this?

 

Because of the odd shape of the D16Y7 intake manifold.

They do exist, keep looking if you really want one. Check the Marketplace too.

 

on ebay

^^found this. it's cheap but it's tubing...

 

try to build one for yourself, get the SRI then look for rubber tubes and clamps heheh thats what i did

 

i was reading around... i know this has been asked a million times but im gonna ask it... should i even do CAI or should i just roll out with an SRI? i was reading that a CAI adds more horse and throttle response, but that an SRI makes it more torquie... its a completely bone stock engine and automatic... so any suggestions? i just want personal opinions. i wont flame not saying anyone else will but what would you do if it was your car?

 

opinion-(i havn't tested this but i feel pretty confident..) it won't matter which you get with a stock motor and auto trans. there shouldn't be any noticable difference in performance. SRI would be easier to install, and maybe easier to keep clean.
