#1781, "Q about how much CAI will impact a race"




          

Say i was running a car and was even w/ him the whole way. Granted all the variables are the same, what would the outcome be after a CAI install on my car? Thanks!

same thing, and sometimes even worse, some of the intakes out there rob low end torque, but the difference wont really be all that much, your car will sound meaner though, and you might just gain enough top end to take that car in the end

It won't make a damn bit of difference.

What? I guess that's why a CAI took about 0.25-0.30 seconds off my quarter mile

Cars are different. Just because it shaved that much time off your car, and you're a pretty good driver, doesn't mean it'll shave that much time off of this guys time, who might not be able to drive as good as you. Also, do you think he is going to tell .1 second of a difference in his daily driving. Damn, I guess I'm an idiot...

0.1 sec, you're right you probably couldn't tell

but I think you can tell a 1/4 second difference with the butt-o-meter

ONLY my short ram made a difference of around .3 seconds in the 1/8th mile with that as my only mod. And I can certainly feel the difference.

ive noticed pretty big differences with my cai and catback! when i put the cai on i was impressed with the gains. Im not sure about 1/4 mile times but i think it would put you ahead of a stock eclipse.
