    Wow, that is very ghetto but I bet it's very efficient, ram/cold air, I bet it leaks like hell though?

    for an extra $10 you can minimize the leaks

    What do you have on your car from Works? You said you had the works stickers but what was on your car from the company?

    no leaks from the the pipe to the cone filter but probably some from the connection of the box to the metal tube thing.

    Stick your fist on the fog hole and you feel the vacuum but its not enough to kill the engine.

    Nothing yet, waiting on springs/swaybar combo and something else down the road

    I see, very nice design though. How did you cut the stock airbox? or did you even cut it at all? I want to see

    Thats just a cardboard box/Packaging clear tape(later on added some duck tape) covering a K&N cone Filter.

    I took off the whole stock air box completely.

    I dont have that box anymore. I switched back to stock.

    Did it feel like you lost power with that custom CAI?

    LOL! I look at the dyno sheets for Fujita's cold air on the 4cyl Eclipse and the gains are huge! I feel like I haven't really gained anything, im going to the Infineon raceway this wensday to get timed...
