i am getting a cold air intake for 99 bucks and it is a direct aem duplicate. i am getting it installed today for an additional 65 at a local performance shop. Should i get it? is the difference going to be signifigant? will i hear that really cool intake noise that kind of sounds like a turbo?? please let me know as i am having second thoughts about the whole deal. thanks sooooooo much!!!
Yeah, you’ll hear the intake roar. But this will encourage you to step on it more. It won’t help performance noticeably.Also, at the age of the car you’d be better off spending the $ on maintenance.
It will add performance slightly but no it won’t sound like a turbo. For the money, a CAI is about the cheapest power mod for most imports. Also, why pay someone else 65 bucks to put it on when it takes about 15 minutes to do? Save the money, and put it towards some other mod, maybe some underdrive pulleys or a cat-back exhaust.
65 for install is an expense you can easily avoid, over the intake should satisfy you. i would just install it myself, its just about as simple as bolt ons can get
