My new CAI ohhhh mannnnnn

So now you turn the stereo down just to hear the sweet sweet sound of the intake and exhaust don't ya????? Hahahaha I know the feeling I haven't had my stereo on for days...Congrats and enjoy!!!!

So true......................

not too long after I bought my 05 I purchase a k&n cai and installed it. I swear it was slower after the install. but I don't have exhaust so that could be the reason. I end up selling it to a friend who does exhaust and he loved it.

AEM intake and Magnaflow exhuast....It was a perfect marriage....LOL

I am running the Stillen SS dual rear exit. I came really close to going with Magnaflow. My CAI is still with FED EX but only a couple hundred miles away now. I went with S&B. I should have it Monday and can't wait.

I agree. U dont actually feel anything till u get to the top end of 2nd gear. My exhaust basically is just for sound and looks though so im not sure if headers and a cat-back exhaust are the solution. I cant see many people spending $700-1200 for headers that bring horsepower up +8-12. Same goes for the pipe work. Like I always say......just sve up for the blower, then youll have the bragging rights.:cheers:

Just got my S&B last night, toke me about 45 min to install. You won't be disappointed.
I could really feel a better throttle response on take off, and it's nice and loud. Got to love it.

My butt dyno says yes. It feels stonger and pulls harder especially at takeoff. I have read dyno results on other sites that confirm this is not my imagination. And thanks for the info jrr, you made the wait just a little harder, LOL. I can't wait to see what she does, how she looks, and how she sounds.

Has the S&B been redesigned from its earlier "extremely lean" running condition that it was causing??

I wish I was able to tell a difference with my intake, but I only have the k&n 77series. est a wopping 7.25 hp gain.

Good choice! Its what I got too.

Have you seen any MPG gains since you put the intake on?
