The newest intake craze - The FMCAI (aka - Interfooler)

[BlueCrush]

Yup here the new cool way to make people think you have a turbo. The new Interfooler or FMCAI (Front Mount Cold Air Intake).Discuss....

[Sublimewind]

Darwin is strong with that one...

[AKLGT]

wow. that's like the little thing you put in the exhaust to make it sound like you have a turbo. LOL

I've seen these before, now water ingestion is even more direct, fantastic!

I'm speechless.

[damronjr]

Oh boy, I fully expect every RICE comment in the world, but that is a damn cool idea!

[AKLGT]

interesting idea, yes. completely rice, yes.

[keithvibe]

it the at set up don't need a by-passvalve I don't know what intake does... One puddle or hard rain storm and your engine is going to become a paper weight

[CountryVibe]

I really don't think water would be as much of a problem as needing to change the filter every week from the 10,000 bugs and rocks it would catch

Love the two cars included on the product picture.

[northvibe]

that would totally block your coolant cooler/tranny cooler..have fun with a hot engine/tranny but hahah it would look cool...until you got wasted by a vibe

[Kamikaze]

I remember when these came out for the civic about 5 years ago... I took one look at one in person, laughed. and that was about it.The idea is cool, but they are too small that they don't look right on the front of the car, and I can't see it helping or being nearly as effective as a normal CAI.

You also not only blocking the radiator, your taking air from the radiator, so your engine will be hotter thus losing performance. lol.

[Whelan]

I dont see how air coming into the filter and making a 90 degree sharp turn then through all that piping is going to add hp. A SRI seems like it would do more than this thing. Plus the filter is about the size of your stock one in K&N material. Maybe if you lived in the desert but not where I'm from. Think of driving in the snow and all that snow piled up over the intake while you drive, lol. It's like a snowcone for your engine. Which btw is not good.on a side note I'm surprised that me jumping out the window only gets people to want stuff off my car instead of the garage of cleaning products and equipment I have.

[kevera]

Oh,Oh,Oh.I have dibs on the cleaning products and equipment.

[NibCrom]

Fake stuff that doesn't help your car go faster is lame. I'm putting this in the same category as fake badges.

[Whelan]

Waxing your car like I do would make your car faster than this thing, lol.+1 for fake badges

Its not even rice, its down right pointless and harmful on your engine. Might as well run a funnel into a filterless pipe directly into your throttle body and pour water down it lol.

[DiveNut]

Does it come with stickers too?
