Default Turbo side C.A.I.

Hello Chris and Theo, as you know, I have a Blue Power C.A.I. fitted to my car (amongst other things) If you were to replace my existing C.A.I. with a turbo side C.A.I., what performance gain would you expect from the change. I believe a re tune would be necessary and louder intake noise would be expected. Which C.A.I would you recommend ? Thanks guys,

Regards,

Tony

Default Re: Turbo side C.A.I.

With the turbo side CAI it will be very loud with induction noise and i am not sure if you would really like it..

Best will be go for a drive with someone (not jack. as he has only 3000rpm limit for a few months ) that has one and see if you like it..

The Turbo side CAI can also cause over boosting issues in some cars aswell and may lead into you having to change more than just the CAI..

Give me a call and i will run into more detail for you ..

Thanks Theo.........

I haven't gone for the turbo side intake just yet. Still thinking about it. We'll see what the 'final' tune yeilds.

I'm doing suprisingly well with the limit too! The car has plenty of go up to 3000rpm in saying that, I am really looking forward the other 3000rpm I'm currently not allowed to use
