Im just curious how i am biased when i have never had a CAI and dont actualy run one on my car? I am just telling you the facts from an unbiased opinion, showing you a dyno graph with proof, and you cannot prove your point. I dont know Adrian, I have bought products from him however so there will be no running. You are just trying to put forward an argument with someone that argues with idiots for a living...
Put up or shut up.
Pot....Kettle....Black? You all be the judge on his claims.
yeah right...Quote:

Alfy has said it himself now that hes got one on there and that its just made a difference in noise. so theres ur ***ing proof.
i've seen for years on alot of diff cars and the max a CAI has given was 2kw and that might not even be correct cause dynos arent accurate all the time...
-edited out swearing- aaronng
Whoa there big fella, why are you swearing, is someone proving you wrong?
You have seen on alot of different cars yes...but that doesnt mean you have seen it on a car with a K20 in it, so i call rubbish to the fact that you are even experienced enough to make a call on the validity of the claim that the CAI does in fact increase power at the wheels.
Crackerjack performance toy? Ah well at least it aint a family car eh!
Please refrain from swearing.
CAI alone without accompanying headers and exhaust don't have any gains.
that is all, put it in ur signature...
my car goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr*vtec*RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! !
ahahaha
relax guys, I just wanted to know some info about it, thats all... I'm going to enjoy the sound of the intake for a few weeks then order my exhaust system.
:wave:
Find a dyno of a K-series motor with a before and after dyno that makes no power, i bet you can't. You can't find FACTS to prove your opinion and thats all it is is an opinion, you don't even own a k series motor so why do you think you are mister know it all? I think you should pull your head in and possibly insert it in your anus because thats where it belongs ;)Quote:

I have dyno sheets of both for proof
Also on average STOCK sportivos pulling 102-104kw atw mark..
While those with just a CAI were pulling 110-112kw atw
Now your telling me thats not an increase with JUST a CAI? Although i dont know much about the K-series motors, you cant compare different engines.
according to Adrian from TODA, his standard type S produced 112kw atw.. I believe him, as he is involved in this industry and won't BS for the heck of it..
I want to dyno test my car and see what I have...
Could you do us all a favour and take the stock airbox with you and test it?Quote:

but from what Adrian from Toda told me, I'll believe him on the quote 112kw atw.. he did also mention that the DC5S's power output is like a DC5R with a hondata... lol:thumbsup:
yeah just go dyno your car with and without CAI, now im curious to see how the "k series" responds to CAI.Quote:

$500 on a CAI for noise is understandable since people spend 2-3k on rims just for looks... but spending $500 for an extra 1-2-3-4-5-6-7kw is just silly when ur tryin to put that power into the front wheels.
