Intake

Post by CFD911 »

Which would be better for an 05 base model vibe a CAI or a short ram intake? And is there any particular kind that you suggest?

I went all out and spent the money for the TRD cai. I love it, and I've been told it sounds like a damn vacuum under the hood.

There is only one CAI available for the '05 and '06, Cosmo Racing. I had one on my '04 and just bought one for my '06. You get more HP with a CAI than a short ram.

you get more HP with a CAI but you get more torque with a Ram Air

K thanks guys, I was going to inquire about the CAI from Cosmo racing it appears from other replies it is a good choice. I think I will get that in the spring, no point on getting it and trying to put it on in the winter...Thanks again
