Is there anyone out there who makes a CAI out of Carbon Fiber. I think this would rock over metal, I had a solid plastic one in my 03 mustang GT and when we did the Dyno since it was the proto type it made 10 HP and 10 FT Lbs. (www.JLTtruecoldair.com). I haven't asked him yet if he is willing to go to the four cylinder market or GM market yet. If anyone knows if a CF one is out there chime in.

 

Not that I know of and Carbon Fiber is hard to get at the moment.

 

it would be awesome, ive seen it a lot on bimmers and high end cars

 

Why is CF hard to get at the moment? Excuse my ignorance but new to the tuner world.

 

The military is sucking up all available supply. It seems that it is more important to use CF to kill people than to go fast - go figure.

 

Ok I'm miliary and haven't seen any CF around here lately.

 

It's used in stealth aircraft and certain types of missles, and rocket launchers.

Probably why I haven't seen it, It's stealth...lol......

I researched once to make it myself but never found a good reference, probably ask some of the airframe guys at work who do fiberglass if they know how.

 

Hey my budy joe might be able to make one.
Hes made me emblems and a coil cover ill talk to him and post back.

 

sweet.....Price is going to be the factor I bet but I bet the benifits over metal should be great, especially in a long run on the engine due to heat soak.

 

The way all these aftermarket intakes rub against all kinda crap under the hood... I wouldn't want anything carbon fiber.

 

too pricy i talked to my guy it would be like $300-400 oh well

 

Cool, Thanks.
