I get a kick out of some of these responses. For some reason, some folks think that if anyone posts an experience or opinion dissimilar from their own, that the person is either nuts, a neophyte, never driven a car before etc. Folks, I posted my experience nothing more or less. I felt what I felt, heard what I heard, etc.
The fact that when I mashed the gas with the Airaid and the car barely accelerated, as compared to how it reacted with the stock intake at same speed/rpms is real and absolutely seen/heard/felt.
I can assure you all that I installed it correctly. It's not rebuilding an auto trans, folks. ;) I don't think I had any vacuum leaks as all breather hoses clicked solidly into place and I double checked everything. I also had no CELs, so if I had a vacuum leak, I'd probably have had at least one CEL or other abnormality.
I'm happy for those that installed the Airaid CAI and noticed immediate, positive effects. It just didn't work out that way for me.
So I've got 80 miles on the car with a tank of 93. Feels great so far.
