CP-E Short Ram Intake, in development....

[cboney]

I received this response to a call I put into CP-E regarding short ram intakes:

"Hello, we spoke on the phone the other day and you asked me if we were going to design a short ram intake for the Mazdaspeed vehicles. In the past the company owners weren’t too keen on creating one of those products, but the demand for them has been tremendous. I think the owners see this, and I believe that we will be producing a short ram intake in the near future. If you can give me about a week I think I can give you more information about pricing and availability. Thanks for you interest in our products, and please do email me again if you’d like more information about the upcoming short ram."

Get excited? YES!

[Boother]

It would be hilarious if they got a SRI out to market before Cobb fixed their issues....

[copperkid]

Any updated on this? Price, estimated production date.

[steven88]

damn if Cp-e came out with a short ram intake before cobb, I would be DYING in laughter

how about cp-e throwing an airbox into the mix as well? lol!!

[copperkid]

Where do I preorder? :)

I lawl'd.

[nighthawk358]

they told me that they may start selling in like 2 weeks

[nighthawk358]

hopefully its cheaper than the HKS unit.

[copperkid]

It will definitely be less than their CAI. Let’s just hope it’s competitively priced with the Cobb SRI.

If they can pull this off they will attract a good part of those customers waiting on back ordered Cobb SRI's.

[mr_mazda329]

Pics or Ban....lol. I can't wait either way.

[wisniaPl]

hopefully its cheaper than the HKS unit.

250 for hks its not bad its just 50 more than cobb and if i have to wait i would buy it......

[Renzokuken]

LOL the irony.

[nighthawk358]

actually for a SRI $255 is kind of steep. Thats as expensive as almost any CAI in the market. but considering that it is the only option available for now i would still buy it. im dying to see the cp-e sri. CP-E MORE DETAILS PLEASE!!

[copperkid]

I'm going to guess it will come in at $200-$230 given the quality of cp-e products. I hope they have diferent color options.

[AAMguy]

i bought the hks....its high quality product and i dyno'd 250whp and 270tq with just the intake.

[desperado-c]

they told me that they may start selling in like 2 weeks

Did you discuss the possibility of a box?

[nighthawk358]

nope..didnt mention the box in the email. but i highly doubt it that they will be working on a box any time soon since they are working on the standback v3.

[nighthawk358]

the only reason im going with the sri and not the cai is because im afraid of hydrolocking and i live in a very tropical place (puerto rico). it would suck to see my baby drowned, if not i would have gotten their cai no question about it.

anybody have their CAI in red?? i'd like to see that setup

[mr_mazda329]

I know what you mean. It floods bad here in vegas after a hard rain. We even get flash floods.

I sold mine but I have some pix somewhere. I'll dig them up and post when I get a chance.

it was a reason why i went with sri and im very happy....im not afraid of any storm or other bad rain.....

[desperado-c]

CP-e is posting in their "saloon and store" section elsewhere that they hope to have some "shorties" for sale in a couple of weeks. They are flow-testing and will post pix as soon as the prototype is ready. Only color option is powder-coated aluminum but maybe some different color silicon choices. No response yet to questions about price. I don't imagine they can do much about price until they finish a prototype.

[copperkid]

Does anyone have any news or updates.

Are you stupid or something? The Cobb sells for $175 , if the HKS is $250, what is the HKS costs over the Cobb? $75(hand)

[Kain]

Pics of the prototype. Yes, the crankcase breather nipple will be added to the final product. Should be around $200, give or take.

[AAMguy]

it looks like basic intake....

Oh, snap. Good thing I didn't include © 2008 Kain Enterprises, Inc. All rights reserved at the end. That would've really confused people!

BTW, some pimply teenager created (evil) in paint a few years back. Please cite your sources next time.

[J-Villa]

Awsome. Looks like cobbs, priced near cobbs, and might accually be avalible for sale and not B.O.

Patience is a virtue.

[strytnyne]

no velocity stack?

[nighthawk358]

its there

[mr_mazda329]

CP-E FTW... Can't wait. Hopefully they make enough. Atleast a couple thousand of em so I can atleast get one.

[desperado-c]

its thereIt's part of the filter. They call it a "bellmouth" instead of a v-stack.

You are now the official biggest douchebag on the forums. Where do you get off taking that insulting tone towards people? Don't be such a little self righteous prick.
a) Depending on where you purchase the intake would determine the price difference.
b) Where in his post did Kain claim that: i) He found the pics ii) The pics were his?

Thanks for the pics Kain, that filter looks good, and now I will anxiously wait for the release.

[J-Villa]

patience is a virtue I am running very short on every time I look at this thread!

[F430TECH]

Isaw on anotehr forum these shoudl be out this week...purchasing my Test Pipe and Forge BPV today...can't wait for this...i almost broke down and bought the HKS piece...glad I have waited...

[Myriad]

Anyone hear of any possible group buys coming up when this is released? I should be getting my ms3 next weekend and would love to pick one of these up.

The guy from CP-E Said on another forum that it owuld be initally offered at a reduced price...People are going to be lining up for this freakin thing. COBB is about to get hammered by CP-E. Lets hope they make enough to meet demand. Maybe they will do what COBB did though and come up way short and watch the price of their intakes skyrocket?

[15min5k]

Looks like a very well made piece thus far...Not sure about how I feel about the metal part being there as that will surely conduct heat but who knows...Are they making a heat shield for it as well? Oh, and the air straigtners look much more solid than whats on the Cobble sri.

[PCspeed3]

My bet is that it will be $215 and there WILL be a shortage haha. Hopefully shes compatible with the Accessport as well.

[714ms3]

I pre-ordered mine from dabears2k for 200. They start shipping in 9 days (hopefully).

[MSP-4-ME]

What's the link to order? Also, anyone know if their Airbox will be compatible if we buy the SRI first or will it be a completely different setup?

[LoeyTheBeat]

the filters they use are dry right?

[JerAyala]

Yezzir, they are.

[LoeyTheBeat]

this is looking good man.. i think i'm going to drop my cobb order for this

[saranya]

What's the link to order? Also, anyone know if their Airbox will be compatible if we buy the SRI first or will it be a completely different setup?

it will be compatible of course. although cp-e has said it's pretty low on their development list.

unless they start seeing a lot of people ask for it. then they will move it up.

[MSP-4-ME]

I'll buy one!

[copperkid]

Any news updates on the Xcelnano?

[strytnyne]

they are gauging interest on the cold air box =D

[copperkid]

It would be awesome if they offered the Xcelnano with the silicone turbo inlet pipe for around $300.

[rosskoss]

My understanding is that a SRI is only of any benefit if your stock airbox is restrictive/unable to flow sufficient volume of air. So is the stock airbox restrictive?

[djthom]

yes very

According to COBB, our stock airbox is the most restrictive they have ever come across.

[Conso]

i was at cp-e couple days ago, their still testing the SRI but i do know they just recieved some hardware to make ton of em, also they are working on an inlet pipe so just sit tight they should being come out soon

[punch]

Man, this needs to come out like yesterday. :)

[ElSpeedDiablo]
