Woohoo!! Just put in a CAI!! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Pardon the slight deviation from 240's, particular because I know how shunned that is, but this has to do with modifying an import, and I think that keeps it automotive-related enough, no?  That said, woohoo, I just put an AEM CAI in my '94 del Sol Si.

Yeah, yeah, it's a Honda.  But, seriously folks, I'm so excited.  I put it in myself, and that just kinda rules!! =)

The exhaust had already been replaced (professionally) with a Flowmaster high-flo cat and exhaust with custom piping the whole way.  The sound is very much not like your typical flippity bippity Honda.  Seriously, it sounds nice and deep, and produces a pronounced "vroom" that just doesn't seem like it's eminating from a 4-cylinder.

I highly recommend to you all that your install a cold air intake at your earliest conveniences.  I imagine it should be just as easy (ie: even I could do it) and produce the same results.  So, what are you doing not ordering one?

For that matter, what I am doing not driving with one?

... sound footsteps running to door, door slamming, and an engine's rev which fades off into the distance ...

Umm...a confusing time it is.  New sections added just today...I think this is now OT since it's not about the 240 or even nissans at all.  *shrugs* I'm gona move it, if its wrong, I'm sure someone will move it back.

Sweet!  Intakes are really cool, I want one <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
