Florida 76 06-06-2005, 05:53 AM quote giggling like a school girl :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: _____________ brianfcp 06-06-2005, 06:26 AM where do you buy it at. and how much does it cost? Im pretty sure any import shop will have injen intakes, but I dont know which will have for the cobalt. tx05cobalt 06-06-2005, 11:00 AM I cant find anywhere that sells it. I hope that they tested it enough to not throw a check engine light though. Modernceo 06-06-2005, 11:06 AM Ill look into getting some, and will order some to get into inventory. Once we get them in inventory, we will have real live pictures of them, and will ship them off the same day ordered by Fedex. Ill report back with details later today. Chevy4Life85 06-06-2005, 12:22 PM can you ask them if they will be making one for the 2.0 while your at it? wikkymaster 06-06-2005, 01:04 PM awesome sneaky 06-06-2005, 01:17 PM Will this work with the SS/SC? Looks ok for the LS but not the SS rm25x 06-06-2005, 07:38 PM looks nice. Bet its $300+ fire_cky 06-06-2005, 08:03 PM oooo. definitly a sexy intake. i like how you can convert inbetween short ram and cai. i like. indeed i do. Balt36 06-07-2005, 03:10 PM That intake is nasty man...I have one question....WHERE DO I GET IT? anyone knows let me kno man Co27SSKid 06-07-2005, 03:27 PM Q: How does that thing offer up so much more torque then Hp?? aren't the #'s usually close? 05EBPursuit 06-07-2005, 08:07 PM Wow, that tjhing looks sweet, I wonder if it would fit into my pursuit...should be the same... CNFX1 06-08-2005, 05:51 AM Injen Intake ----> http://www.cnfxperformance.com/product_info.php/cPath/22_27_30_2204_2344/products_id/2739 tx05cobalt 06-08-2005, 11:01 AM you should run a group purchase to drop that price down. Im sure some of us would buy it if we knew it had been tested properly and no check engine light brianfcp 06-08-2005, 12:10 PM Whoa, $237!?! I'd buy it if I knew it was safe to.... wikkymaster 06-08-2005, 02:10 PM why does it say LS, does that mean base models cant use it? tx05cobalt 06-08-2005, 04:05 PM I think they are just trying to say SS models cant use it. There is no reason why an non LS model should not be able to use it. Wait for one of the companies to put them on ebay the price will drop... I to would buy it if I knew it was good but and would work. I emailed injen but so far no response. CNFX1 06-08-2005, 06:47 PM I just got off the phone with Injen. They said as long as it's 2.2L it will fit. Modernceo 06-08-2005, 06:54 PM Ive checked with Injen, they said the Cobalt 2.2 intake was not going to be available for another week or two. We will put them into stock here at Modern Performance as soon as we can get ahold of them. tx05cobalt 06-08-2005, 07:09 PM did you get specifics on the testing? tiny 06-08-2005, 10:05 PM so the cobalts dyno at 117 whp? tx05cobalt 06-09-2005, 01:26 AM the one they dynoed yes.,, but ive seen out 2.2 in cavis dyno in the 130s stock so who knows Chevy4Life85 06-09-2005, 12:29 PM Yeah I would wait and buy something form a place like Modern Performance Racing Products LLC ' lol do i get something free for saying that... they seem to be the most reliable to me, and the have a cobalt PremioJoe 06-09-2005, 09:21 PM I just ordered the Injen intake this morning. I used to have an Injen cold air on my Nissan and I loved it. They do make a quality product, so I had no hesitation in buying it. Once I get it and have it installed, ill make sure to post some pics. PBiddy412 06-10-2005, 03:15 AM The gains do seem low from what I saw for cavaliers. I knew the cavies were around 130whp stock. As for the gains with the injen, i think its worth it. Plus the intake is actually awsome looking. I'm kind of pumped. Probably going into my car next after the system goes in the car and i get through this months car and insurance payments! KJS 06-10-2005, 09:13 AM Ill report back with details later today. :poke: , 4 days now so far....details? tiny 06-10-2005, 07:09 PM a 5hp increase on a dyno could be from anything they could have iced the intake, and increased the octane ....etc i wouldnt expect much power from an intake 2005co27 06-10-2005, 07:35 PM I ordered my Injen Intake last week. Thought it would be here today, but unfortunately Injen isn't shipping until next week. I payed $250 at my local NOPI store. I can't wait to see what is gonna look like on the car, and the difference in performance. skyhunter1 06-11-2005, 06:32 AM I ordered my Injen Intake last week. Thought it would be here today, but unfortunately Injen isn't shipping until next week. I payed $250 at my local NOPI store. I can't wait to see what is gonna look like on the car, and the difference in performance. Please let us know if you have the issues with the check engine light. I would like to order one but i don't want to if there are issues with it. Don't want to get stuck with something i can't fix. The customs shops here in Italy don't mess with american cars at all. Chevy4Life85 06-11-2005, 11:49 AM Ive checked with Injen, they said the Cobalt 2.2 intake was not going to be available for another week or two. We will put them into stock here at Modern Performance as soon as we can get ahold of them. , 4 days now so far....details? they gave details PBiddy412 06-14-2005, 07:00 PM I'm assuming there hasn't been any updates or news about this intake other than you can buy it at the one shop? PremioJoe 06-28-2005, 02:05 AM I just installed the 2.2L Injen CAI and i love it. No problems with the install and it runs great! I definately can feel a gain in the CAI :nuts: 05EBPursuit 06-28-2005, 04:59 PM I just installed the 2.2L Injen CAI and i love it. No problems with the install and it runs great! I definately can feel a gain in the CAI :nuts: Pictures!!! Doens't throw the CEL?? PremioJoe 06-28-2005, 08:58 PM Ill be posting pics sometime tonight. My CEL never came on. So far Ive had zero trouble with it. brianfcp 06-30-2005, 08:53 AM so premiojoe, would you say $250 was worth it? Do you think the price of that intake will decrease? Cause I am interested, but It just seems strange paying so much for a pipe. TarZan 06-30-2005, 12:28 PM ^dude, $219 and FREE shipping: NGA auto group purchase (http://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3046) he emailed me and told me mine should be shipped out tomorrow. can't wait! Gargamel SS 07-05-2005, 06:24 AM PremioJoe where did you buy yours from? PremioJoe 07-14-2005, 02:37 AM Here is a picture of the intake installed. I know its a small pic, but its all I have. http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/7/4/8/injen_thumb.jpg I honestly have no complaints with the intake. My gas mileage has increased almost 2mpg and I definately have alot more top end power than before. Its really not that loud either to be honest. It does have a nice tone though when I open it up. As far as rain goes, I drove through some nasty storms with the cold air and I havent had any trouble. wikkymaster 07-14-2005, 01:02 PM mine is in the mail i cant wait, how hard is it to install the cold air part i know you have to take off the bumper and stuff PremioJoe 07-14-2005, 08:54 PM Its really pretty simple to install. I actually didnt take the front bumper off. I just unbolted my wheel and took out the wheelwell cover to put the cold air extension on. It took me an hour to install everything. wikkymaster 07-14-2005, 09:53 PM i have the short ram on right now its sounds sweet NGASales 07-14-2005, 10:31 PM Wow Wikky you got it already? That was quick I was thinking 2-3 business days. Glad to hear the great feedback so far. wikkymaster 07-14-2005, 10:46 PM yea lol im very impressed deuceKb 07-15-2005, 12:41 AM glad to hear u got yours so quickly wikky, i hope mines comes just as quick :cool: !! NGASales 07-15-2005, 02:05 AM Duece should be there tomorrow. NGA cobalt7801 07-15-2005, 02:10 AM I have to get me one of those. $250 isn't that bad for an injen intake system. Does anyone know if AEM is going to make one for the Cobalt? deuceKb 07-15-2005, 07:16 PM NGA i recieved mine today from UPS around 4 pm, allready stuck it on (short ram version) will go w/ full cold air intake version when i have time to take front bumper off. I am very impressed w/ the speed and type of service that your company keeps, look forward to doing business w/ you in the future ! :cool: quick question for anyone to see if they've tried this... instead of taking the front bumper completely off, any way to just take the plastic out from the inside of the fender well and then stick the rest of the kit on? i need to look at it to see if it can be done, thought of the idea setting here lol. if anyone has tried this plz post. btw here is a pic of the new cold air intake short ram versoin, slightly bigger then primos ;) http://www.strike9.com/deucekb/100_0122.JPG?&thumbnail=600,600 wikkymaster 07-15-2005, 07:23 PM http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y5/wikkymaster/7-14-05003.jpg and get a pic of your rims man lol deuceKb 07-15-2005, 07:35 PM Wikky check out the sig now, see how u like em, will try to post a pic of the rims in a lil bit ;) wikkymaster 07-16-2005, 12:56 AM sweet man, i wanna see that underglow now too! :) xrecar 07-16-2005, 09:43 AM NGA, Do you have anymore of the intakes available? Either polished or black? Thank, /x Permafried- 07-16-2005, 08:17 PM Question for both of you that have it installed (even if it is still just the short ram at this point) does it increase the engine noise much either on the interior or exterior...this is one of my main deciding factors on going with an intake...I don't want my car screaming :lol:. Permafried- deuceKb 07-17-2005, 12:35 AM With the factory exhaust and the CAI installed running normally, u can't really tell at all that u have it installed. after installation, when u punch the gas, u'll definately hear the CAI sucking in air in the car. I can hear it w/ my music turned about a 1/4 of the way up and my windows up. Sounds really good tho, makes u wana just punch the gas and get a new exhaust for the car! :cool: brianfcp 07-17-2005, 12:36 PM so is everyone happy with their injen intake? cause the more good news i hear, the closer i am to purchasing one. any issues at all? not much louder? ah man, hehe, i like to hear the car when you floor it, and silent when its idle... wikkymaster 07-17-2005, 12:53 PM i love it so far, i love the screaming noise too lol i cant stop flooring my car now which is probably not good deuceKb 07-17-2005, 08:21 PM got pics of the full INJEN intake. I had some free time and installed it today through the right front fender well instead of taking the front bumper off. Sticking this second peice of pipe on quiets the car down a good bit from the other short ram version, but still sounds really good. Can't wait for an exhaust now. http://www.strike9.com/deucekb/100_0130.JPG?&thumbnail=600,600 http://www.strike9.com/deucekb/100_0131.JPG?&thumbnail=600,600 wikkymaster 07-17-2005, 08:23 PM very nice tiny 07-17-2005, 08:28 PM is it gonna get better flow down there? wikkymaster 07-17-2005, 11:37 PM http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=7-17-05-003 theres a short video of my friend tryin to drive my car but doesnt know stick that good but you can hear the intake pretty good detrini 07-17-2005, 11:47 PM u want to see a badass car, view that video in widescreen, the cobalt looks nice when its wide..lol Florida 76 07-18-2005, 01:17 AM how about someone posting a how to on the how to board _____________ wikkymaster 07-18-2005, 01:21 AM how to of what?

Just make sure you do the job right the first time and you wont have to go back and waste your 30 seconds. deuceKb 07-25-2005, 01:23 AM i've had mine on for almost a coupel weeks now, ran it pretty hard, love it to death. have no problems w/ the INJEN cold air intake, i sugguest u get one, u won't regret it. NGASales 07-26-2005, 12:55 AM Last Week To Pick Your Intakes Up For 219 Shipped!! Anyone Else Interestd As Of Aug 1 They Go Up To 231.00 Shipped! co-yellow-balt 07-26-2005, 04:06 AM Last Week To Pick Your Intakes Up For 219 Shipped!! Anyone Else Interestd As Of Aug 1 They Go Up To 231.00 Shipped! wow. can u say rip off. id never ever in my life spend 220 on an intake. i customly made mine for 50bucks. take a 95 civic intake from a junkyard. add a 90º bend and an $30 air filter and Bam u got a intake. which does the exact same thing as your $200 one. :lol: Cobalt30 07-26-2005, 07:52 AM is it gonna get better flow down there? it should since the air filter is outside of the engine bay so instead of sucking in air that might be 150degrees (inside the engine bay) it will be sucking in cooler air from the outside of the engine bay and underneath the car where it is much cooler since heat rises. There will prolly also be a constant rush of moving air thourgh the new spot too so aslong as he is driving it will always be cooler air NGASales 07-26-2005, 10:03 AM wow. can u say rip off. id never ever in my life spend 220 on an intake. i customly made mine for 50bucks. take a 95 civic intake from a junkyard. add a 90º bend and an $30 air filter and Bam u got a intake. which does the exact same thing as your $200 one. :lol: I would highly not recommend doing that. But that is your decision. If you put your intake and the Injen one on Wikkys car on the dyno, I would bet that Wikkys will produce more power and LBS then your junkyard intake. Also you must be throwing all kinds of codes unline the Injen intake. Post some pictures also! Permafried- 07-26-2005, 01:42 PM What type of air filter does it ship with (and if it's not K & N can a K & N be added)? I'm curious to see how it looks and where it comes down to, because I'd assume in the winter I would convert back to the short ram to protect my filter. As well, did you have a chance to dyno your car before and after the CAI was installed to verify that the numbers posted are close to those that you gained after the installation? I still want to talk to my dealer to verify that this will in no way affect my warranty, particularly if they install it (at least if the labour costs won't kill me :)) because living in an apartment I don't really have anywhere to work on it, not gonna leave my bumper laying in the middle of the parking lot while I install it. As well, I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem but if I were to purchase the bolt-on S/C in the future I'm assuming this wouldn't get in the way? Thanks, Permafried- wikkymaster 07-26-2005, 02:22 PM this wouldnt work with a s/c and also injen makes there own filters i believe, looks like a decent filter to me WhiteLS69 07-26-2005, 02:23 PM NGA sales whats ur site to buy the intake for $219 cause i found ur ebay stuff but that says $230 Permafried- 07-26-2005, 02:31 PM this wouldnt work with a s/c and also injen makes there own filters i believe, looks like a decent filter to me Thanks Wikky, I figured as much with the S/C...but I think I'm beginning to talk myself out of forced induction not only because I really don't need it, but my insurance will hurt as well. If all else fails I can rip the CAI off down the road if I do go with forced induction. I'm going to take a look at K & N filters and see if their racing filter would fit this intake just because I prefer K & N filters over other brands (maybe I'm just fussy :-D). I would assume it would since the intake looks like 3" pipe and any cone should fit on the end of it but better safe than sorry. Just a couple more questions for NGA. Was just wondering if this "Price 219.00 Free Shipping to Lower 48. 10.00 Extra to Canada!" means $229.00 in Canadian funds, or if it's $229.00 in American funds which means I have to take the exchange rate into consideration before making the payment if I were to act on the deal? As well, do you still have any chrome left or are they all black? What type of warranty is included with the CAI and finally, if I WERE to have an issue with the CAI, do I ship it back to Injen or would I be sending it back to you (I'm assuming the first option)? Thanks, Permafried- Mercury 07-27-2005, 09:16 PM My goodness THAT CAI has many bends. Also, they reccomend you unhook your battery so when you are finished installing the intake, your ECU will adapt to the increased airflow. co-yellow-balt 07-27-2005, 10:58 PM I would highly not recommend doing that. But that is your decision. If you put your intake and the Injen one on Wikkys car on the dyno, I would bet that Wikkys will produce more power and LBS then your junkyard intake. Also you must be throwing all kinds of codes unline the Injen intake. Post some pictures also! watever why would it throw different codes out? its the same thing as your injen short intake. except i made mine myself instead of forking over $220 and it does the same thing and makes my car faster as well. :cssNET: is my pic of my intake! http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/2869/new71kr.jpg wikkymaster 07-28-2005, 12:06 AM yours doesnt bog at all? Cobalt30 07-28-2005, 12:48 AM eh looks sketchy :rolleyes: i dont mind spending the 200 on a professional air intake since i did spend 15k ON MY CAR. IonNinja 07-29-2005, 06:12 PM yeah that looks like crap...I agree with Cobalt30 Blk05Cobalt 07-30-2005, 01:03 AM anyone got more pics of this Injen intake on a cobalt? me and a friend are going to get it for his jive 08-13-2005, 05:28 PM Completed view.. http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/1/7/3/frontview_intake.jpg Step 1 http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/1/7/3/step1_intake.jpg step 2 http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/1/7/3/step2_intake.jpg step 3 http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/1/7/3/step3_intake.jpg step 4 http://cobaltss.net/gallery/files/1/7/3/step4_intake.jpg Hey guys, I just wanted to post some pics with the intake...It took me and my dad a little over an hour. Everything fit perfect, we took the front wheel and fender well off to get to the bottom of the intake..this was very easy..just a little time consuming. Gains are noticable and it definitely sounds awsome.. I want to thank NGASales for a great price, as well as fast and good service..... :cssNET: On to the exhaust and headers.... :-D wikkymaster 08-13-2005, 05:57 PM HEADER lol and yea i think im gonna get the pacesetter header since im not sure if any others will work with our carss Modernceo 08-13-2005, 07:22 PM Fyi, Injen took a little longer than expected to get the intakes to us, however we have them IN stock at MP, $229 with free shipping all day long. We have toll free ordering, and because we have been in business since 1997, we have a great phone staff that will readily answer your call , and get the part shipped off the same day ! Pics will be up on our website within a day or two at most. Evilfrog 08-13-2005, 07:58 PM eh looks sketchy :rolleyes: i dont mind spending the 200 on a professional air intake since i did spend 15k ON MY CAR. Im willing to beat you'll pick up an extra half horsepower with the professional one. twandamon 08-15-2005, 07:02 PM modern......can u do like next day or 2day shipping for me...i dont care about price i just need the damn thing RedBaseBolt 08-29-2005, 03:02 PM Damn I just got a price quote for one of those intakes from my local Dealer... $349.99 Canadian! thats retarded! I'm gonna build one myself. redchevycoupe 08-29-2005, 06:17 PM Hey I don't know how to post pics but I have a black powder coated injen intake, the total came to 230. If you want to look at it go to: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2063211 I think the black looks pretty sweet, also I have not seen another one on a cobalt yet. Peace Ronnie hardtocope 01-04-2006, 08:08 PM has anyone been having problems with CEL lights at all with these injen intakes? also if i get a intake is it recommended to get a new manifold and exhaust? also what are factory air intakes considered, shortram or cold air? Xenozx 01-04-2006, 08:11 PM had it installed for about 5 days, no CEL. Are you serious? NO! Just install intake call it a day. Its considered a factory intake... Short rams and CAI bypass the AIRBOX that all stock intakes have. The only diff about short ram and CAI is that the Short ram still sucks hot air out of hte engine bay, where a CAI sucks it from outside of the engine bay. EDIT: I have an SS/SC so # one may not be pertinate to you question. TurboTechRacing 01-04-2006, 08:27 PM has anyone been having problems with CEL lights at all with these injen intakes? also if i get a intake is it recommended to get a new manifold and exhaust? also what are factory air intakes considered, shortram or cold air? I think we have sold about 35 of these and this is the first time i even heard of a 2.2L check engine light. They dont exist on this system, atleast not due to the intake. We have the black and polished in stock for 229.99 Free ship...Email us for the discount code. KangolRiot 01-04-2006, 09:31 PM I was wandering if any1 knows why it says it only makes 7hp with the Injen Intake that converts from CAI to SRI.. and the Reg CAI that cant convert says it gains like 17hp and about 12tq? RaineMan 01-04-2006, 09:38 PM I dunno about that graph.... depends on what type of dyno that Injen was using for their measurements. Do any of the other companies show actual dyno graphs for their intakes, or do they just quote numbers? Xenozx 01-04-2006, 10:26 PM You are not going to gain 17 HP on a 2.2 from a CAI. IM sorry, but those #'s are BS... celicacobalt 01-05-2006, 11:50 AM those higher numbers would be possible on the 2.0 so maybe thats where it came from 1SloBowtie 01-05-2006, 06:33 PM My guess would be they're measuring it at the crank... M-Dub 01-07-2006, 07:01 PM Gravanatuning.com and modernperformance.com both sell the Injen Intakes as well as the AEM intakes.... Although a recent magazine did a test on HP and Torque ratings from different manufacturers... and the AEM won by about 1.5-2.0 hp on a 99 Civic Si.... but believe it or not the SHORT RAM versions of each made more power than the cold airs did!!!! THey are both in the mid 250's.... I got my F5 Fujita for 297, and love it.... |
