Question about SRI VS CAI

Is there really a 6hp and 4lb/ft torque difference between the SRI and the CAI?

actually elite..

after reading this thread that should not have been started in the first place, i've found that civicvtec1ps is correct...

sri is high end torque
cai is low end torque


thats just what has been covered many times on this forum that i can visibly seen of...

Ill let this thread stay open for discussion and arguements for damn sure!

Oh jesus can we stop talking about SRIs and CAIs. Its a well known fact that SRIs transfer more applicable low end torque through the flex capacitor, which is unique to the design of the SRI, than do any of the high end CAIs.

notice how you still are not, and never will get one definite answer. get whichever you like, it won't make any big difference.

All I know is that if you drive for long distances often, the SRI would be better, but for city traffic, the CAI. My idea of it all.
