+1 for disconnecting the battery for at least an hour after any configuration change.

Am I the only one that likes the look of the uncovered intake manifold?

Thanks for the intake

Just thought I would bump this thread, I am trying to decide if I am going to paint my UR intake when it gets here. If I can get it to turn out similar to the OP's I would be pretty happy....

ibrandon · 08-25-2008, 08:30 PM

how does it do in the rain? only problem i can see is the intake sucking up water....

Unless you completely submerged the filter in water it will be no problem, IMO

gimp2x · 08-25-2008, 09:46 PM

whats the surface area of that filter element? it looks to be a decrease from the stock airbox....

Curt2000 · 03-27-2009, 09:53 AM

hey mods can I have this moved to the DIY section?

Nebster · 04-11-2009, 07:43 AM

fixed

damn i feel like an ass

Curt2000 · 04-11-2009, 10:49 AM

percentage wise Im sure the gains were minimal...I think UR claims about 10-15HP. What I like best about this intake is it looks great and sounds just as good as it looks, it is a very high quality intake and one of the only true CAI's for our car.

Nebster · 05-21-2009, 09:51 PM

i know i'm bumping but i'm installing now and i'm having some trouble with the fender liner getting to fit again. any suggestions?

cn555ic · 05-22-2009, 08:44 AM

It should fit back in with no problems, unless you went with a larger air filter...The one supplied although its small is adequate enough to allow enough space for the fenderlining to be reinstalled with no problems...

TMR · 05-22-2009, 11:22 AM

What i did to make it ALOT easier was i cut the pipe, near the PS resivior as it starts to go down and i installed a coupler there and i made a bracket to hold the lower piece in place. makes it SO much easier to install and remove the top piece for any maintenance.
