Airraid CAI and Paxton

[smann]

So my garage called me today and said my Airraid CAI doesn't fit with the Paxton 2200sl??

Is there any way to make it fit?

not really

you could maybe make the air filter work, but, for what you can get out of it used, you can just pick up a jlt for 199 that is designed around the kit

Just put a K&N air filter on the head unit for less money than the JLT & make more power.

I did the k&n and it was collapsing under boost.

You're just weren't spraying enough of that awesome oil on it. :lol:

Sorry to hear that!
I'm spinning the guts out of the little 2200 that could with a 3.00 pulley & 20% OD & the K&N is doing just fine under boost so far.

Ohhhh. Nice. That’s the route I’m going. Tell me more. I’m hearing it’s too much I want to go 3.3 with he 20 overdrive

I'm wastgated with a 12lb spring but my boost controller reads out 14lbs at 6900rpms & up. Im on 93 octane & 16 degrees up top. It made 689whp (auto) with everything being the same but at the time of the dyno pull it was 93 degrees plus it had a jlt intake & 3.47 pulley.
I put the boost controller, the k&n filter on the head unit & the 3.00 pulley on at the same time after the 1st dyno pull so I have no numbers on the new set up. All I can say is I once had 2nd gear traction with R888 but now that's a negative even at 60mph.
The car goes to the shop this Mon for a final pull on 93 before switching to e85. So I will update with before & after numbers, if the car is happy I might add 1lb of boost also. Goal is 800ish whp then working on traction.
