donno, mr catts said he personally uses em and just puts em straight on the MAF. he said something about velocity bla bla donno, basically somehow it is engineered so that the computer and maf sensor correspond well to it or so.

Hey Guys,
blackmax23 wrote:Nismo1219 is exactly right. CAI gives you more mid to top end and a short ram will give you more low to mid power. So I'd recommend get a Cold Air and if you wish to get more low to mid range power, take off the "down" pipe that goes from the MAF sensor down underneath and just stick the filter on the end of the MAF sensor instead. That's what I'm doing for the winter months here in NY and it's def. true, I can feel a lot more response from low end than I could when I had the full tube on. Also, the quality of the Injen is awesome, I'd recommend that all day!
Hey Guys,

just picked up and installed my Injen CAI about a week ago. I went the route of applying the filter directly to the MAF for the winter months. I noticed I've LOST one MPG, BUT this is my first winter with this vehicle anyway. My mechanic always told me in the past that MPGS were lost in the winter because here in colorado with the altitude gas stations modify the gas blah blah blah i stopped listening...

So our winter has been pretty mild until about a 3 weeks ago when we had a cold snap and averaged single digits highs for 2 weeks straight. So I'm hopeful this is the reason for the MPG drop?

I'm gonna put the full downpipe on around late april early may time frame...

Any thoughts? I'll post some pics soon I guess.

good times, love this forum!
