My Cold air intake..

I just installed this K&N Typhoon.. Doesn't it look like it's a little too close to the engine for it be a "cold Air" intake?

that wire connected to the battery may damage your filter a little.

It's not driving over puddles that'll get ya, it's driving THROUGH water. I've been in a few situations where I've been through water that was above the bottom seal of the doors... This is why I'll never get a CAI...

if you bought that thinking its a CAI then you got ripped off, because that is a SRI.

So does this kind of filter do anything for our engine in terms of horsepower? Drove it 280 miles today... All I noticed was better throttle response and a much better sound at 5,000-7,000 RPM.
