What do i need to do to just mount the pod in the engine bat without a CAI.
Just want to get the filter in and i know there are more gains from having the CAI, and that will come later, but just need to know what is required just to do a basic install ? |

I'm a Jersey 6GC. With our weather, it probably doesn't make much sense to put in a CAI because I'm thinking if its closer to the bottom then, chances are rain water and all that are going to get sucked in. Any thoughts?

Thinking of doing this and have done quite a bit of research and have a few questions
1. I have noticed on a lot of other forums people have suggested using non metallic piping as the pipes will heat up due to the heat under the bonnet, which will negate the effect the cold air intake has. If the piping was to be wrapped in header wrap, would this effectively keep the piping cool or would this be a bad idea? 2. Is the stock resonator integral to the stock air system? If not could you disconnect it and close up the hole in the system to provide the sound and then just use a K&N drop in filter? 3. Has anyone used a pre-filter? Do they restrict air flow? and are they worth it? 4. The bypass valve will reduce hp gains and sound from the CAI. In the end, is it just for the bling look under the bonnet? Because from what i can gather the gains expected are 3hp at max and the bypass valve takes away 2-3hp. Sorry to be a pain, my car is my baby atm and don't wanna hurt it =P Thanks This post has been edited by UVZ164: Oct 23, 2011 - 2:56 AM |

The filter was better than the spectre ones from auto parts stores But that price is too high, I got mine for 28 shipped -------------------- For Sale:OEM tail lights - make offer

Can anyone tell me what model of an SRI would fit our cars?
i was going to get the CAI and just cut it down but it seems a waste if i can one to fit straight in? has anyone got any pictures of a homemade/modded SRI? moving in favour towards the SRI with hood vents due to the flooding in my area lately. |

Depends what you want.
Injen makes a SRI, or you can just get a "no name" one and throw a good filter on it, its all the same. Got mine from a seller called "chromeintakes"or something like that. Just search 95-99 celica short ram intake or something of the sort, and you'll find something. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

Ohh yea didn't realize you were in Austrailia.
Try looking for something on ebay.uk, or something similar so you don't have to ship overseas. I love the sound of mine, nice and loud. For performance, it probably does the same minimal amount every SRI does. I can't really remember the change I noticed when I did put it on cause it was so long ago. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

So I got the 2.5" Accord CAI 2pc set and I tried to install it but the throttle body is smaller than 2.5". Went around to local auto stores and they didn't have any 2.25" to 2.5" coupler. So I ordered one online and hopefully it'll fit.
