CAI

[fiveohalex]

Sup guys. I have a question....I live in a cold state..and would like to buy a cold air intake. But there's a problem. I am moving to a warm state next year. Will my cold air intake work in a warm weather state? Thanks in advance.

Can't tell if serious....:shrug:

EDIT: I guess i will answer that...A CAI will work in any climate. The "cold" referenced in the name is merely just eluding to the idea that the intake should be pulling in colder air.

Is that a dumb question??? I'm sorry. But I want the right intake and not have to buy 2.

There's a WAI (warm air intake) but you don't want that.

Is there a hai? Hot air intake? Metal ones get real hot....should I buy that? Does american muscle carry that?

It was a joke. No HAI or WAI exists. You want air cold as possible coming into your engine. Hot/warm air means lower performance.

What if I use meth injection with a hot air intake... I saw on YouTube some dude talking about it...and will I need a tune with a intake for hot weather and meth?

 

[BoomBoy]

Meth brings temperature down on your air intake. Any intake can work with meth.

So an hai with meth can work?

 

[BoomBoy]

CAI can work with meth as well. No reason to put HAI on your car.

OK. Sorry guys... Total newb here. Thanks for the help.

Just route the exhaust back to the intake and spray it with meth and liquid nitrous. Then you can reuse exhaust and get incredible gas mileage while getting cold air performance 400% of the time!

So a turbo?

So a turbo?

Almost. A turbo uses the exhaust gas to compress air and then route it back into engine after the intercooler. No exhaust going into engine.
