Hey guys i have an 07 ss/sc 2.0 and i was wondering if anyone has this air intake installed http://www.turbotechracing.com/produ...idproduct=2705

its the injen. im just curious of any CEL's or anything or any tips. Thanks guys.

 

I don't have the intake installed but most likely the only way you would get a cel is if you over oil the filter. If you use an AEM dryflow you have no chance of doing that.

 

got with the k&n great product. backed name

 

DONT GO WITH K&N!!!!!! I have heard nothing bad about injen , fujita , injen or AEM.

 

injen ftw. Never had a problem and never oiled it. I heard many problems with the K&N with messing the maf up. Injen is the best when it comes to oiled filters

 

Let me know how urs goes, ive got an 07 as well....Installed mine sunday....the vibra mount was a lil hard, but everything else was a breeze, clearance and all

 

trust me ... you dont want a kn intake i had one and it was messing up my maf... injen or aem is a great brand.. if you can afford fujita that is a awesome one too

 

I'll be buying the Ingen CAI soon aswell.

 

or you could go with the SUPER K&N AEM 100WHP INTAKE



but seriously i like it and its dryflow

 

i have never had problems with my k&N over 20000 miles on it and cleand and oiled twice. with no cels. blowerwine in insane with it. and i felt a differnce with it when i put it on.

 

i did a lot of research with the intake and it was either fujita or injen...and of course i went with the right one that pleases me

 

you guys keep bashing K&N but I haven't had no problems since I've had mine installed almost 2 years now.

 

any idea of where to get the aem dryflow?
or atleast a sitei could check it out at?

is there a filter out there that requires no oil?

 

i have the fujita and the whine is incredable!!! no cel's and definately pulls harder at the top of the gears

 

i would say go k&n but its all a biased opion. not every one has every intake and of course they are goign to defend the oen they have. but i know a boy who has the aem and he hates it

 

Just remember that the aem cai is only the filter and one lower peice. Some sights don't have the full description listed- It does replace the entire intake pipe! It seems pricey for what it is but it works well and looks stock when you open the hood if you like to be sneaky about stuff. Also the air bypass valve is not designed for the 2.0 ss/sc.

 

OR you can buy the 70$ ebay intake thats 99% copy from injens welds and style and it works PERFECT. its been tested. CELs are random some people get them some done. i have injen and didnt get a cel. 2+ years no

 

The AEM dryflow requires no oil. It works great! I've had mine for a few months now. The part number is 21-2110DK You need the 5 inch element with the 3.25 inch inlet.

I think autoanything.com has them and if not there check your local autozone, napa, advanced, Oreilys, etc etc. They can probably get it for you if they don't have one.

The AEM will work on any CAI you just may have to get a different size inlet on the filter. I'm sure the other filters out there are fine as long as you are careful with the oil but the AEM is really hassle free and fool proof.

 

The reason i am bashing K&N is casue when i dont bother to clean to filter so i dont over oil it so i just buy new filters. Then when i take off the pipe to clean my MAF out and all i see in the the pipe is FILTER OIL !!!!!! and when my maf looks like **** then when i wash the pipe out its dirty as hell i belive i earned myself the room to bash them. and FYI i do have the drycharger and did it install it right.

 

....ignorance. Everyone blames the filter/oil when in fact some people have had the same issues with dryflow filters (they are slightly oiled too, I don't care what research you read otherwise) using DIFFERENT intakes besides K&N, every intake is the same, that's the cut dry version, they use the same routing methods, all of the intakes are the same piping and all, only difference is some have dry filters (still oiled slightly) and some have oiled filters.

I cracked open a Fujita and the MAF was contaminated with a AEM dry flow filter on the end. Foreign susbstances ending up on ths filter from god knows what kind of driving and the car will suck that in as well getting the MAF dirty and getting incorrect readings.. Everyone should know the risks the momment they use an intake with an exposed filter at the end rather then the incapsulated filter in the stock airbox.

Best way to take good care of the intake system

1. Take apart intake, put a clean sock or rag at the end of the TB
2. Electric parts cleaner on the MAF to spray off cake on substances (allow to dry)
3. Clean filter (Depending on cleaning Methods) , Allow to dry
4. Dip intake pipings into parts cleaner or simply use water to spray out dirt and allow to dry.
5. Clean TB if necessary
6. reattach unit and let it idle for 10 minutes to air/break in cleaned unit.
67. Let er rip!


I've never had a CEL from my intake other then letting my buddy drive one day and he ran the car thru a puddle. Cleaned it the very next day. All was fine.

Too many misconceptions about people and this intake. Maybe if the half the world didn't buy an intake K&N won't be a popular choice. Anyone i've known in person or on the computer make K&N the first choice for intakes. Every car reads things differently. You should know this by now.

 

When i find filter oil like liquid in the pipe there is something wrong !

 

I have the injen, never had a single problem and it has some nice gains. Good luck.

 

anyone kno of another good site besides cobalt addiction ?
