Want to buy a k & n filter for my 2004 mustang. I can get a used one for 20 bucks w/ about 10k miles of wear, new one for bout 40, or a generic CAI system w/ a K & N filter for about 90 bucks. I was wondering if the entire system was worth the extra 50 bucks or if the filter, by itself, made most of the difference.

the majority of the gains is from getting rid of the "accordian" tube, i would get the cai, if its in the budget

I got mine for $50 shipped.

 

[jimmy_beaner]

mine was like $45 shipped... a *itch to install, mainly just because she didn't wanna go in, but she's on, and on well... and very sweet

I bought a Ebay CAI awhile back... The maker of the intake is Bomz Racing....

Their suggest retail price is... $179.99 if you buy from their website....

OR.... You can get one from off of Ebay for $42.95 + $18 shipping...

Damn I feel ripped off. I got mine for (59.95 + 24.95 shipping) 8.25% sales tax + 3 insurance= $94.90. Did I get ripped off? It's a K & N filter. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7921553040#ebayphotohosting
Check it out yourself.

Yeah he's in SoCAl I'm in NorCal. How much faster should I expect to run?

Probably about .1 to .15. It's just a CAI... not a flux capasitor

 

[megax29]

.1 is equivilant to about a whole car length isn't it? That's more than I expected. I think that's a lot.

What's a flux capasitor? How much are they? How do they work? Where can I get one? How much faster should I expect to run...1/4, hp gain, tq gain?

A tenth of a second isnt a ton, but it helps.

And if you dont know what a Flux Capasitor is, might I suggest watching the movie trilogy entitled "Back to the Future".

 

[megax29]

Back to the future is one of my all time favorite movies and my uncle said something bout him being able to rebuild a flux capasitor, you know of anyone else?

Are you serious?

A Flux Capasitor doesnt exist.... it was what enabled Doc to go back into the future in the movie....

Rellik was using it as a Joke :lol:

That actually made me laugh Mike! Thanks for brightening up my day a little.

And by the way... new CAI article is up!!!

http://v6stangs.com/index.php?page=v6_stang_specs/articles/cai/index.php

I'm thinking about adding a flux capasitor to the FAQ's, what do you think? :lol:

 

[megax29]

Dude I knew you rellik was playing...just turned it back on you

 

[Rellik]

In that case, my car has 4 of them, one for each wheel. 1.2 million dollar modification

 

[megax29]

They don't go in the wheel. You install them on top of each piston...they used to pack an extra punch in every stroke generating greater amounts of energy=hp. And all this time I felt like the rookie, hmm

 

[megax29]

Hey I got that muscle mustang & fast fords july issue where they feature an article on CryO2 for your super charger. I thought can I dothat to my CAI ? Will results be as good?

 

[STEVE]

flux capasitor :lmao:
