Excellent fit and quality and only $35 shipped to the door.
I need to come up with a better mounting setup though...bleck

I've been looking at this brand of CAI as well. The price is good but are there any other issues besides mounting it? Curious about the sound and any performance gains (if any) as well. Looks good for sure!

I really prefe these for ONE reason - they eliminate the last piece of rubber ribbed hose - that ribbing causes a lot of turbulence and this kit eliminates that

Well I will say that I can now get a short tire squeel from stop if I mash it which I could not do previously with the four speed S/E.

MPG gains I can't say as I have got less than a quarter tank of gas used with it.

I check mpg every time I fill up so I'll post any gains if they are there.

Also I added a small hose clamp at the intake tube for the sensor tubing ($1 at O'Reilly). It was a loose fit.

It was a loose fit.

PLEASE - do NOT say things like that - my head is REELING with things to say!!!!!!!!:tease:

I am flirting with the idea of getting this one. any comments you guys have on this will be welcome. I just dont want to spend some really big bucks on what I know is expensive in just buying the name.

Is that one of the systems where the filter is installed outside of the engine compartment? If it is, that's crazy cheap-I didn't even think there was a setup like this for the 3.5L

yes it is BUT you can also just use the first tube and the filter ends up pretty close to where the mopar CAI is - I paid 57.00 including shipping for mine and then painted the chrome tube

Not bad at all. Check out Spectre, I think they have nicer looking mounting brackets.

Ghost!! if i get this CAI, I may need your template to make a cover.

+1 Yeah that's a good tip. They have some universal mounting bracket systems. I'm becoming a fan of Spectre. They offer some cool odds and ends. I bought one of their blue silicone couplers to match my Mopar blue air filter.

I've seen this setup at a recent M&G and I was impressed by it. The only concern I had was how do you clean the filter and is it susceptible to rain water since it is located under the engine bay? At least the one I saw.

 

[IntimidatorR/T]

true, with it under all that stuff it is open to the environment.

I rmember last week on Spike (trucks) on of the guys who had the Ford lightning ut a turbo on it and ran the turbo under the bed of the truck, the air filter was under there too. that is a setup I really dont like.

I do like the idea of what Ghost has in making a top, so I am going to construct a complete box for mine after I install it.

Just ordered my CAI tonight. the one I listed in this post. so hopefully next week sometime it will arrive. ldtimer:

They really do make a differance in the off-line performance, the first mod I bought ( first mod was cutting off resonator). TexSE, if u're talking bout the K&N on Glenns car, it's for the 300s,Chargers as the Challengers weren't listed back in 08! Glenns SE, is one day and 4 hours older than mine, older redhead model, hahaha!
