Should I go for my 3rd CAI in 1 year and get the Wizaired? I emailed Tim and it seems that the S&B Powerstack cone I already have will fit it. That fed refund money is just burnin a hole in my pocket. Am I crazy??

I'm confused... Why not leave the one you currently have on? Do you not like it?

I think she's been buying various different intakes and is wondering if she should try the wizaired.

I wouldn't mind seeing some numbers from the real world on these CAI's before I venture out to buy one. I know the argument for them very well.... but I'd just like to see a dyno chart or good solid before and after mpg's.

I originally wanted the Thrasher system cause it was less money than the Wizaired. 3800 performance couldn't get that system so the discounted the Motorsports Performance one, so I bought that one. It performs well but it is the biggest pain in the butt to remove the lid to get to the filter to clean it. I was just trying to save some money but in the end I just got burned. I sold my 1st one - the SLP (it was too restrictive).

Sure, why not.
If funds are available. This way you can try on your own and give us advice on which of the three you felt was better purchase price/gains.

good luck.

As often as u really need to clean the filter, I don't see much point in buying a whole new cai system. But I wuld probably want to do exactly what you do too. Lol.
