We actually just retro-fitted the one you have to make it work!

Forgive my ignorance here. I cant see any parts from your intake. Lol . Could you tell me what you reuse? Thanks!

The box and the filter for sure. I think the velocity stack part may either be modified to remove the MAF sensor in order to fit inside or a new part.

Guys is it normal for my AFR to jump to 20 when in WOT? I feel like that's lean as shit.

Is it actually going to 20 at WOT or are you noticing after you lift off the throttle? Would be helpful if you listed all mods as well.

That should only happen when you lift your foot off the gas pedal and it even happens with stock paper filter and air box!

Steeda CAI arrived. Looks great and very well made. I too wish it came with a garage banner.

Mine didn't have a banner either :(

So I figured out the issue, which was that I'm an idiot. Everything is fine thank god.

For impressions on the intake, I installed it in about an hours time. Wasn't hard, the covering on the edges of the box was the hardest/most tedious part. But the intake looks great and sounds pretty cool. You can't really hear it windows up, windows down you can hear it suck air with a slight whistle out of the drivers side window. It's subtle, but it's there. Sounds good overall. It's not a turbo car so wasn't expecting anything huge sound wise.

I paired my intake with a Lund Tune and god damn is the car faster. It's an obvious difference in power, and it pulls strong. The second you stomp on it there is a different and better feeling of immediate power and just waking up the car never had before this. It pulls hard throughout and spins more now. The throttle response is no different what so ever to me, you should only really expect the difference in your WOT application. Overall glad I did it, worth the trouble and worth the great BF price. Two thumbs up, would recommend.

No tune only vs intake/tune dyno graph yet?
