Rainy days are no problem. The stock air box is a CAI, with the intake ducting below the filter. It is routed through an air silencer which takes in air inside the fender. By adding an aftermarket CAI, you are not changing any of the ducting that feeds the air filter, only the filter itself and the ducting that feeds into the throttle body.
HEMIPETE, Get the "Oil Catch Can", remove the AFE intake tube and look into the throttle body while u open it up with you hand while the car is off and you will see all the sludge built up from the blow by, the catch can filters out the oil build up in the throttle body. Remove the throttle body by removeing the 4 bolts and use WD-40 to clean it up and then reinstall the throttle with the 4 bolts and get the can. Let me know what you think about the blastin bobs, I want to get a set as well.
Opps if you don't know how o get into the 0-60 timer, just hold down the music button and the compass button on your steering wheel at the same time for appox 6 secons in your will go into dieangostic mode and you can also check out water temp, MPH and RPM's in digital format. ETC....
Try the BLASTING BOB'S pipes..as a reso delete choice. What are your 0-60 times before and after? You have an 0-60 timer right in your cluster which comes on from a dead stop till you hit 60 MPH at WOT. ( Wash the handson motor)
Thanks for the cool tips! I have just ordered a set of 6 dB Blastin Bob's pipes (should give me a much better sound without any droning).
I have never measured the 0-60 time, but I don't imagine it would have improved much just by adding the CAI. From what I've heard, shoudn't expect much improvement unless exhaust upgrade (cat back) & Diablo Predator tunes were also added.
This is my first mod. I am considering a reso delete as the next step as I don't find that the CAI alone gives me the sound I'm looking for, which is somewhere between stock (too tame) and full cat back replacement (too loud).
6.2 thats it mine is stock doing it at 5.3 i did the diablo tune cat back exsuast afe stage 2 im doing it now in 5 seconds
