It draws air from the engine compartment, so it's not a cold air intake.

 

Intake noise ? But easy to get at and change

 

I agree.
Why suck in hot air when you have a factory cold air box.
If you want insulate the box on the car to keep radiant heat away.

 

Boy are you lazy.
You going to change this thing every 10K ?

 

Yeah... That would be considered a "hot air intake"

 

Yep. Nothing about that design makes it a "cold" air intake. I especially like how the filter is set at the back of the engine compartment. Right where it can suck in all the heat radiating off the exhaust manifold. And the bracket that mounts to the body. Uhh, what happens as the engine rotates in it's mounts under a load.

 

Ok, whatever I get, K&N or ? How does this affect the MAS sensor ? Any problems?

 

I’ve had the K&N FIPK and the drop in filter from them, both are about the same


The extra intake hose helped

 

Thanks, Blue. So, you had no issues with the mass airflow sensor or codes ?

 

Thanks FMG- That is kinda what I thought.. Waste of money.
