I am impressed that you had a noticeable decrease in intake temperatures. that cold air intake looks really good.

What were the intake temps before and after the cold air intake?

What were the intake temps before and after the cold air intake?

Running 20 miles this morning to work
65 mph most of the way (2 stop signs half way)
52 degree outside
63 degree intake air temperature

If I run faster intake air temp drops.
If I run harder the intake air temp drops.

 

[sseilmnop]

77 outside
92 intake air temperature on the way home.

Not bad at all. My intake temps are typically a minimum of 120* on an 80* day cruising at 65mph.

 

[buickman104]

Those are some great temps and you don't have to worry about the filter getting caked in mud like the guys that stick the filter right into the fender well.

Very slick!

I'm happy with my open cone but I gotta give you props, thats a very clean and sweet looking/working home made CAI. Nicely done. You could maybe even wrap the aluminum part in some kind of insulation/dynamet to get colder temps and quieter sound.

Agreed!!


Bought some stainless dual tips. Tried cleaning and polishing the old first but I like the duals better.

 

[buickman104]

Those are beautiful! Where did you buy them? Are they clamp ons? If so what diameter?

Hmmm I think I'm gona have to try somthing like this if I ever get time

 

[SgtMarshal]

I like the dual tips better. I have similar ones on my special edition but they aren't very shiney

Calipers are 1/2" open. About 22 fins per inch. This is a keeper.

Going to need a threaded sensor measures .812" ID.

That looks so nice! Do you expect to have to do any cutting to make it fit?

It will fit. My black bonneville has a vw radiator in it. I had to cut tubing/bracket but it was pretty easy.

 

[sseilmnop]

Tips mounted. Still not perfect but close.

Which radiator did you end up getting?
