explain that to me when he has a DCI.....95 degree weather with 30% humidity... i would think he would make more power because his intake is open while mine is closed and this dyno had one tiny little blower pointing pretty much at the intercooler

I read a bunch of these posts and the stats, the opinions, etc. It really made me nuts. There are so many theories and every decent company has a decent sales pitch too. Some members say they feel no gains, some say they feel the gain, some like the sound, some don't care, etc. I personally wanted gains and didn't want to throw any error codes, etc. I liked the DINAN, but !@# that is a lot for something I wasn't sure would produce much. I also liked the AFE DCI with the heat shield, but I read some members thought this actually slowed them down! Like I said, all of the different conflicting opinions and facts made me crazy. I ended up putting a set of those "scoops" behind the grille (which I have no idea if it does anything) and I put in a performance drop-in in the stock air-box. I am running a Helix FMIC, Dinan Stage 2 tune, AE Catless exhaust. I am still somewhat confused if I am leaving anything on the table as far as the intake is concerned?

im still torn besides BMS drop in or BMS DCI... I told him I live in NJ (I see 4 seasons) and that I was going to DD the car with only a tune on 93 oct... he said DCI would still be better. After pming various members who know their shit and i respect on the forum.. it seems a DCI is better than drop in.

I just use my sister's hairdryer or a heat gun to heat up the inlet hoses for a few seconds so the plastic expands. Then the stock airbox tubes slip in very easily.

if u talk about dealer visit maybe if you have warranty but dealers dont pay attention to such easy mods that cant cause any harm
