Cold air intake yes or no??

[Giuls1]

Got an ek hatch with the d16, gonna make the cai as one of my brothers freinds did it, gonna cost me 140$ for everything. I've done research and people say it can give you slight torque barley noticeable and better fuel consumption. Is it worth it??

[Giuls1]

Anyone with a cold air intake what do you think??

I'd say most users on here have tried a cold air intake at some point with varied opinions on the results

its safe to say they can add a little torque and hp on certain engines and setups but on a stock d16 you wont feel much

also you can probably make one for cheaper than 140,use a 3a pod filter and some generic pipings

if u are going to continue to mod the car the intake is something that will free it up for later, ie when u get exhaust, bigger TB, cams, tune etc. its a mod that will basically last unless u turbo. but unless u want to do atleast exhaust i dont think it will be worth while to get an expensive kit, just do a generic like mentioned before

Thanks. Not gonna do it

Would it improve fuel economy for day to day driving with a d16?

possibly, but given your right foot's attitude will change, most likely not.
