i just install my injen polish intake and i'm pretty disapoint with the fit...my filter my filter is so tight in the bumper that you can see where the filter push from the outside...that's make a curve...anyone has the same problem with the injen CAI????

 

when did u buy it? people have problems with the fitment of them. injen redesigned it to fit better. sounds like u got an older model

 

maybe yes...thats sucks...

 

email or call injen cus u got an old one...supposedly the new ones do not cause your car to throw a code, and dont push the bumper out either...thats just what ive heard anyway.... its gona be a hassle to get your new one from them, but im sure its worth it, talk to SilverSS about it, hes going through the same thing

 

i think you need some grammar lessons...

 

i decided to sell it. sold it pretty cheap but idc.

 

im assuming that your talking about me?

 

i didnt see anything wrong with the post?

 

hmmm... was i the only one who actually tried reading this??

 

lol yeah i read it...its pretty bad but i got what he was saying, i just though u were being a wise ass about my short hand typing

 

I thought u were referring to Dan. My bad

 

Ya, i had fitment issues, sent mine back to injen. Just recieved my new one, put it on no problems and no cels

 

How hard was it to get the new one through injen? Did you have to go through a bunch of BS with them?

 

I am having fitment issues with mine also. Even without the rubber shock mount it still fitts really crappy. My intake is a few months old, so that means i have the old intake. To swap my intake for injen's new intake, who do i contact?

 

My fitment issues were a bit worse then the intake rubbing against the bumper. The way the bend in the intake was, my hood had actually contacted the intake resulting in a huge dent.

As for injen, all i did was e-mail tech support and talked to them. Nice people no complaints.

 

sorry for my spelling...i did my best...i'm a french guy...if i dont really want to return it to injen...did anybody know if some bending or another filter could fit more properly without damaging the CAI??

 

Bend the bracket that holds it to the wheel-well.

 

It would prob. snap off before it would bend......

 

Bro I have the same problem with my injen cai. I just got off the phone with injen and they are replacing it. All you have to do is email them, tech@injen.com with the QC# from your box, your reciept, the color and your personal info like name and address etc. You can do this without sending yours in first. They will hold a $50.00 deposit untill they get your defective cai back. They send a return tag with the new cai. I'm in the progress of doing this because the fitment is rediculous. Mine is now scratched and the boot doesn't fit flush. Hope that helps everyone with the fitment problems.

 

just ordered one from turbo tech hope i got a good one. its taking fedex like four days to get it out of mn. its going from town to town in that state. i called fedex to see if they were walking the dam thing to me.

 

I got mine from Turbo Tech last week and it doesn't fit for ****. He still has the bad ones.

I managed to get mine to fit fairly good. I have to make a bracket to bolt it to though. I also have a big mark on the top of it now from where the hood rubs on it.

 

um, no...I did it and it worked. You do have to be careful though. Its sturdy and a PITA to bend, it can be manipulated.

 

I got mine from TurboTech as well so all the polished cai's he has in stock are the old ones apparently. Injen is swaping mine out soon.

 

I thought Turbo Tech was supposed to have the new stock in. I would hope Turbo Tech sends the old stock back and gets the new version from Injen. Instead of using having to go to the trouble of trying it out and finding out it's the old stock.

 

We do have the new stock in, are you guys sure... as of this week all intakes shipped out are the newest.... Unless we had one mixed in the batch. Call Injen with the QC date on the box. They will tell you if it is the new design.
