I built this CAI and it is very efficient according to my it Temps .. usually run at ambient or 1-3 degrees above ambient with the iat sensor in the carb hat 3" from injectors and air filter under the charcoal canister on drivers side

There is a thread somewhere outlining every piece of the build and it caused zero restriction on a 400 hp engine at 6k rpms

I took it off and ran nothing on top of the throttle body at the track and lost 3 tenths consistently

 

Bump

 

I don't see a picture, did you post one?

 

 

I did

 

How much are you askin for?

 

I paid 100 for carb hat , 30 for aluminum piping , 15 for 4"-3" reducer , 35 for epdm rubber elbow , and 40 for filter ...

That's 220 total I'll let u get it for 150$ plus shipping with an extra filter and extra epdm elbow
Also the aluminum piping is wrapped in heat reflective tape

I can get u more pics in am of close ups and where the filter is .

Before installing this intake on a 60 degree day my I AT Temps were well over 100 if not let closer to 120-130 and that's with the venting of RA2 hood

After install on 60 degree day I had iat Temps of 60-63 degrees

On a 100 degree day it got up to about 107 ... can't beat that with a stick lol

 

Does it make a difference if i'm running tbi instead of a carb? And yeah before i throw money around post a pic or two of where you had it running to because i still have my canister on the drivers side.

 

Also I'll leave my I AT temp sensor in the carb hat for u .. it's the birdcage style too all u gotta do is lengthen the 2 wires going to the sensor about 8 inches

 

ooh sweet, i can take mine back now, i literally just bought one the other day, I dont really need the carb since I am running TBI, but I would like the AIT, and the whole old air intake. I like may airfilter, but the gmpp performance intake is just a tad high then my other one so it rubs. could you do 130+ shipping? Ill pm you right now, or just shoot me a text, 5413409876

 

Wait did you have your charcoal canister there? or was it gone?

 

It's gone but it can always b relocated if u have to have it
..an I think 150$ is fair for 300$ worth parts plus my fab work time

 

BTW I am parting out.my whole 1992 firebird couple with LOTS OF UPGRADES !

LO3 rebuild (HP Estimates)

 

You have time slips to prove it lost 3 tenths without the cold air intake?

You probably lost time because you didnt have an iat hooked up. I 100% know that hat alone is more restrictive than four barrrels to the sky

 

Yea actually I do ya ****in moron ... and the carb hat was still on it when I lost 3 tenths just.the piping removed so iat was still hooked up

 

Only reason I'm even selling parts is because the car was totaled otherwise it would stay right where it is

 

Yo dont get rash with me.

Youre the guy claiming your "professional cold air intake" shaved three tenths off your time vs just barrels up. NOW youre saying the opposite.

So which is it, did this cold air intake indeed shave youre 1/4 mile or did it not?

People on this forum do not appreciate lies.

 

Need i say more.

 

So is the CAI actually worth it?

 

I didn't say the opposite I said there was nothing on the throttle body but the carb hat the tubing was removed so the iat was still hooked up and that was 3 tenths in the 1/8th by the way ... y don't u go blow smoke on ur own thread ... if the car wasn't totaled I wouldn't b selling it at all

 

Soooooo with the CAI disconnected and the carb hat on the TB I lost 3 tenths ...

And there is nothing I've ever posted that indicates I'm a liar ...

And how exactly is a 4" inlet carb hat restrictive ?

 

And nobody here is using 4 barrels are they ? I have a TBI and so does the guy asking about it so unless u wanna buy it stfu

 

It's better and cheaper than anything ur gonna find for a TBI car ... and ur not gonna get colder iat Temps running a filter anywhere in the engine bay ... the filter is completely outside the heat of the engine bay ... air quality is better than quantity to a point ... most ppl run 3" exhaust on these cars and this is 3" intake so unless ur Makin over 400 hp it's not a restriction ... at 6000 rpm shift point I was seeing 98-99 kpa which indicates no restriction
