Logic HVI CAI over DCIs

Pseudo Nim · 03-10-2010, 10:13 AM

Looking at this as a possibility... but curious if I would see any realistic gains in either power or reductions in intake air temperature, esp for consistent WOT runs? It seems to take air from ROUGHLY the same area as the DCIs. Not looking at other CAIs since I'm broke (and this one can be had somewhat inexpensively).

Thoughts appreciated.

In comparison with AFE/BMS DCI. This seems like a inferior design because it only utilizes one cone instead of two (ie: one for each turbo). Also its placement in the engine bay so you won't observe any lower IATs in comparison to the AFE/BMS DCI.

Plus the BMS DCI is way cheaper than that!
