i want to get a stage 2 turbo in a few months (hopefully) and i was wondering if i should buy a cai now or a short ram. and if a short ram would give me any hp gains or even work. thanx

why? you will just be taking it off anyway for the turbo.

yeah if you are going turbo in a few months don't even bother with the CAI or RAM.

-97 GS (First project, 299 whp)(sold)
- 97 RS 2.6 last numbers: 306hp, 352tq @16psi (Dead, parted out)
- 99 GS OZ, Hahn Kit, 56k miles (Sold)
--------
- 00 Nissan Maxima GLE (Daily Driver)
- 02 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro

yeah don't bother getting a NA intake. But... if you have one now you can probably still utilize it when you get your turbokit to make a CAI. Randy was able to make a Stage 2 with CAI, I don't know if it makes any difference though, hehe probably gets the filter dirty faster

Who sez FF can't drift?
