warm air induction

i reasently came across a warm air induction system...never heard of it......what is it lol and what is it for???

An air induction system that takes air from the engine bay.

not worth it if you have the 3400, there's a lot of CAIs out there that aren't too pricey

thanks just wondering i wouldnt get one i allready have a cold air...lil more horses and better mpg...if you dont romp on it that is

wow your so wrong there buddy. i got the 3400 and a WAI and it works wonders!! i got mine from ebay for like $45.00......best money i have spent under the hood so far

i use to have a cai but im lowered and kitted and sucked up water and didnt have a bypass so i switched to wai really cant tell difference any which way but i really dont care about performance

[natedawg9640]

I heard from a couple people that the short rams give a little more throttle response that the CAIs... that's about the only difference i guess....

I had the CAI but changed it to the WAI.. Easier to get to for cleaning. and I think it looks better in my opinion.

[Mr_Reed]

where'd you get your intake from?

[cavaliers60]

ebay. like $40 It was originally CAI, but changed it to WAI.

That's what I have and I change it back to CAI at the track. I actually have the Dr Speed intake, I bought on Aleromod years ago. I just bought new K&N filters. I have a "cap" filter on the downside of the pipes. I use a different filter with a mesh top for racing only

I run WAI on the street, just do to the water thing. There was a member on here that ran CAI and got road salt in his intake in the wintertime. Not a good thing.

You can see the pipes in the pic so it's an easy convert to CAI. Takes me about 10 mintues to convert to track, which entails WAI to CAI conversion, removal of fog light and front fender liner and of course swaping the filter

^ thats a pretty cool idea

I'm sure you're right, your wai probably works great, but, cold air would be better for your engine than warm air.

I agree cold air was my favorite from having both.

WAI gets better low rpm throttle response while CAI does better on high end.

Shop for both and you can tell by price which is better.
