Default New air intake pics

Hi guys. I've been real busy lately with my company moving to a new building and everything. So, I just go a new digital SLR camera and wanted to share some pics of the K&N cai. I also did the u-bend delete (but I left the resonator in) I will soon be shopping for mufflers because one of them is rusting from the inside out and needs to be replaced. I was playing around with Flowmasters or Magnaflow.




Car show season really hasn't started yet so I have no new pics of my car. I will def post some when car show season gets underway here.

Ya I like the performance. I don't know if I'm getting better gas mileage because the weather here has not been that good and I havent driven it much. Next complete fill up I will figure out the gas mileage - but with gas being $3.30 for reg out by me I probably won't be filling it up all the way any time soon

I guess my thinking is if the car breaths better it will get better gas mileage. - Ya my Monte already gets real good gas mileage. My 05 Mustang V-6 gets crappy gas mileage but I tend to put my foot in it more than my Monte.

This is correct. Less HP is lost trying to suck air into the engine and a more open exhaust means the engine doesn't need to push it out as hard.

I saw about a 2 MPG increase with my CAI and Dynomax exhaust.
