Rep Power: 0 cold air intake will give you better performance....unless you have a ram air hood or something.....but you can have trouble with water getting in it..its called hydro lock...but you an get a part to put in it to fix it.....
the whole set (headers,exhaust, and intake) will add about 5-8 hp....not much....but it may depend on the car.....you can search and find better answsers

Rep Power: 0 headers intake and exhuast would definetly give more than 5-8 hp, the cold air intake alone would give minimum 8 hp if u have the aem cold air intake. you can get the bypass valve for the cold air intake to prevent the intake from sucking in water.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Before anyone else says they get over 15+HP from Headers/Exhaust/Intake...please think about what your saying...
Do a search on the site and you'll see that for the past year everyone has realized that all 3 mods won't give you over 10+hp...
It might feel like more...but that's cause you have a light car...and it just seems that much better...
Import Tuner last fall did a test and found out just what I'm sayin...They put on a DC sports exhaust, AEM CAI and DC header...
I don't know much about this...but this i remember...just lettin you all know before you go drop over G on all 3 and realize you just arent getting the power...
I'm not hating on you all...Just sayin what I think...

Rep Power: 0 [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG], haha, yeah, 8 hp of a cai, suuuuure. Good luck with that, you'll be lucky to get 8-10 out of IHE. The d block doesn't respond very well to mods. And you can't just add hp on top of eachother, it doesn't work that way i.e. "well I saw a dyno sheet that said that so and so exhaust gives me 5 hp and another dyno sheet said i get 4 hp for this one intake, well damn thats 9 hp." Nope, sorry, doesn't work that way sonny. Plus factory dyno's will often be exaggerated, they will take care of every factor to make their numbers as inflated as possible. Don't believe me? Go have your car dynoed after ur intake, I'll bet you don't gain more than 2 hp. I think I saw the a short ram intake dynoed by a third party and it had a gain of 1.1 hp, don't expect big numbers. 8 hp....[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] , sure I'll drink to that!
