get a WAI (short ram) for a Z24 and a CAI for a V6 Alero. Put them together and then you'll have a CAI. Much cheaper than going to Dr Speed, and more than likely faster that way too. lol

yes, exactly. actually, I thought about it about the same time I got my WAI...but I never mentioned anything about it...I think you the first to actually implement it. if not, one of the first.

other than oldsman and silentalero..... don't they have induction dynamics?

$365 plus shipping for the induction, so you guys bought short rams and then bought a full cold air? then added on? wouldnt it be easier and cheaper just to buy the cai?

hey guys. when installing a new intake where do u plug the old plug into? theres a hole in the new pipe but theres no prongs in side. and also what about the short rubber tube the sticks out that used to plug into the box overtop of the throttle body?
