I've never reset mine but the most I've seen on mine is 23. something..I mostly drive around town though with stop lights every mile or so..

 

Wow... seems a bit some body is really worried about Air Aid..
But, its good to find out what exactly is actually happening..

Before one says its hotter , or getting more hot air...
You really need to record the temperature in those areas that you think are getting hotter, an opinion is okay.. but actual reading tells the difference.. (position a temperature probe)

Theres also a slotted bracket on the Air Aid.. if you make adjustments to it .. you will find a bit of relief...

I sure one will have better dynos than the other its all from design conception..

Tell us.. Does the outer body of the CGS is it hot to the touch after driving? How's the Air Aid intake feel to the touch ? (temperature probe)

I will have more detail Install information later..... after stage 2 parts arrive....

 

hvrod is right about that slotted bracket. I made some adjustments to it and the pan a little bit and I have absolutely no rubbing issues. I have an MTX, and nada a single rub. It is pretty loud, but that's to be expected since it's basicaly an open box and that it sits right on top of the engine. However, I replaced the current filter with the other Spectre filter I had in my HHR from when I had it connected to the black hose, and the sound is a little quieter now. I can thank CJ for pointing that out. In regards to hot and cold air. Hey. It's summertime folks. You're going to have hot air issues regardless of what you have under the hood.

 

To me it looks like the AirRaid is designed to draw cold air in from factory spot in the fender in addition to trapping the cold air that is being forced through the front grille. The CGS one looks like it is designed to soak up heat. It will be interesting to see the dyno results.

 

Man, I leave for 2 days to go to Monterey and Mike has 2 Air intakes systems, I don't have one as yet. Does that seem fair?
And Cap has changed his avitar and sig to an even scarier look. Does that seem fair?

I'm now worried about leaving fo a week next month.

 

here is mine w my airaid w a 3R racing filter i was using before with my other set up and i like it. alot quieter and seems to have more pep than the filter that came with it.
oh and it is blue

i pushed the rubber down on the sides more to make it so it is not sticking up as much
it is not as tight now

 

CJ dose that sit in the middle of the engine compartment?
Just wondering if it would line up with the center of the hood or close enough to mount a hood scoop over it. I have the top part of a scoop from a old Trans Am. I just need to get the filter and filter box in the middle of the hood.

 

IMO, they had a scoop in mind when they created this. It does fit right in the middle of your engine. It basically just replaces that big black cover where your current air filter is. So it is pretty much down the middle.

 

Thanks!
I just need to get me self one now.

 

Now that's looks cooooool!
