Steeda CAI Review and Install Notes:

[Sasuketr]

First two pulls were done back to back, last pull, the car waited 20 minutes for cool down! I drove the car directly from my house to the shop in the morning. It was only a 2 mile drive and maybe it was not enough for fluids to warm up. There is a huge difference between the pulls 1,2 to 3!

Best run comparison with a member here. As i mentioned earlier, same shop, the dates and conditions are at the bottom of the page, not same day or temps but he had a jlt intake, 93 octane tune, and a catback exhaust! Blue line is my best run and red is his!

Good numbers. No way of really knowing the true gains.. at least according to other stated "scientific" methods. Would have been nice to have a stock baseline to compare to.

Do you know what gears the other memeber had and if it was auto or manual? That matters.

most people dont care or just dont want to spend the money to really find out.

5th gear as well! They said he was on Bama tune but they were not 100% sure! He has a GTPP as well, we bought the cars from the same dealer here!

Oh i figured it was over 400 after tune, guess not

LOL he's referring to me in a backhanded way...but whatever. If I had the time and money I'd be more than happy to do a real data test on a dyno between stock and Steeda. But, in the end, I know it made power for me and I don't have anything to prove to anyone on here since I'm not the one selling products.

I have 3.73 gears and manual. My overall numbers are lower however the Dynocom is a heartbreaker as is.

That all depends on the dyno. Some folks are over 420 with a tune, CAI and catback.

The HP numbers from run 2 to 3 are definitely related to letting the motor cool off. I made three runs back to back and the third showed significant drop as the CHT and intake temps were pretty hot. I'd say you're looking pretty good!

I have a Lund tune on the way so once my headers are coated and ready to install I'll do a before and after dyno run to see what gains I get.

So after intake and tune I've noticed my car will rev a bit after a cold-start.. Is this normal or something I should PM Steeda about? Immediately after starting the car and the RPMs drop they will shoot back up to a little under 2k and drop again. Only happens sometimes just want to make sure this isn't anything to be worried about

If you want to get rid of it yes you need to contact them. They should be able to adjust the timing on mapped points 0, 1, and 2 which should get rid of that.

That intake temp is pretty high actually!
