Seriously though, I would like to see proof if they do. Smoother air I can buy into more easily but that doesn't make a lot of difference until very high rpms. Sound and looks should be the dominating factors when going with a CAI. |
it doesn't! What it DOES do is it limits the restriction and turbulence of air flow. Stock intake tubes have ribbing type plastic therefore creates air turbulence, also it doesn't have smooth air flow into the upper intake manifold. Most of the cold air intakes are promoting cold air intake, but what it is really accomplishing is smooth air transition from filter to manifold. No ribbed edges and no turbulence creates even air flow.
