what is the point of these last two posts? Are you really helping at all? if not, shut the %$&# up. (my little rant, even though I've not been posting much, THAT'S WHY). As for the question, I searched far and wide before getting my CAI - I believe Injen is the only one that has done dyno testing with a wind-tunnel type of setup on the CAI (from other threads on this board), but never seen anything for any SRI. Why not spend the little extra and do the CAI? The benefit of cold air seems like it should be worth the extra cash...

The point is to say "they are basicly the same"

Then they should have said that, or posted nothing.

PLEASE, don't always believe in to a company that gives dyno results on a product THEY are selling...im sure i could find a dyno of a grounding kit company claiming 12 whp...

protege5online lists in the sale section "gains of up to 12 hp". baloney.

to me, an intake, short ram or cold air style, serves two purposes on this car = pretties up the engine bay and makes for a more agressive murmur under the hood. had the intake / exhaust combo on the car and just didn't "feel it". maybe in the top end, but really its just not that great of an increase.

unplugging 2 spark plug wires 1st then plugging them back in doesnt count, p.s. i hope you were joking when you wrote this..

i'm sure it will only really give you higher end stuff, i have my stock intake piping in place with a unifilter (uniflow.com) filter... makes noticable gains in the high end...

anyway my point be i'm sure that the sri and cai would do similar

and yes i'm aware i don't have a speed... just my 2c

If they more/less do the same thing, then i will just get an SRI because i can get one customized for about 75 bucks. So, then i can use that $135 that i didnt spend on an InJen and get something else. Thanks for all the post.....Does anyone have the Billet intake on there car???

Make sure you get the SRI far enough away from the radiator fan that will blow hot air onto it. Make a heatsheild as well...people that have done SRIs on this car have found a drop in power if they don't place it correctly.

It'd be nice to see the first run on that as well...but the MSP gets much hotter under the hood than the P5 does...that graph, does however show that you *can* make substantial gains with a custom set-up that's properly engineered (or even just fudged right! (evil))

boo-hoo.

this board is crazy with dyno results...

One intake makes say 3hp, the other makes 5hp. Are you going to notice the 2hp gain? NO!

My point is that its a damn pipe that brings air into the engine.
