We have tons of threads, and an intake section. We talk about this topic at least once a week ;)

I prefer the Wizaired system for the 3.8L.

What you are hearing about flooding the engine is when people make their own FWI and they put the filter in the fender without any guard on it from the wheel well. This just allows the filter to suck in water

Sorry. I searched for it and couldn't find any. Now i looked up the Wizaired CAI system and I just need the standard version and I dont need to get the K&N filter or coolant bottle for it right?

I made a FWI system i have yet to it put it on though, i made it so the filter is mounted as high as i can get it

Lost count, but I think X6 on the Wizaired CAI...:rotfl:... That's what I run and I love it!!!... :thumbsup:

On a budget, I have seen a conversion of the stock air in-take where the insides are gutted, front of box cut out and a cone filter added, looked pretty good to me... I did consider this option, but the Wizaired just looked sooooo good, had to go with it... :D

Same question. Do I need to order the additional filter and coolant bottle? It's for a 2005 supercharged. Thanks

You need to order a filter, it's just the box that you are buying. Unless you already have a cone style that would fit (but you probably don't)

Coolant bottle is only if your coolant is on that side like in the older grand prixs. So no.

Cold air inductions. they test thiers in real world conditions hp not at fly and engine is in the car with no forced extra air. 10hp at the wheels garanteed. plus they make a sweet powdercoat black one.

Other than the powder coat option is there any difference between the cold air and the zzp performance wise? Also on cold air it says 1998-2004 when I punch in 2005. I'm assuming it will work for 2005
