XTC Front Mount Air Intake (2.0 SC)
I read the info here...http://www.cobalt-addiction.com/performance.htm
Questions:
1. How does it work with current CAI upgrades such as the Injen.
2. Looking at those pics it seems as if the tubing attached to the filter is rippled. To me this seems like it would slow air down, and add a bad flow since its not a smooth flow. Correct me if I'm wrong please.
3. Will this block cold air from entering the aftercooler/intercooler for are cars?
I personally would love to see a black XTC Front Mount Air Intake on my car. I think it would look sick, but I do not want it for just looks. I want performance too. What you guys think?

way to rice for me!!!
i cant see that giveing any higher ganes then a normal CAI..infact with the extra length of pipe and it being rippled i'm willing to bet that its givieng fewer gains then a normal CAI.
it just screams RICE!

ok...those intakes suck! notice the clear plastic cover over the filter...they let almost no air through unless you remove that...but then every splash of water and rock and bug you hit wrecks the filter.
Also...we have a blower...no need for "ram air"

Hahahah... oh man those are gay. If that was my store, I'd be ashamed to carry that.
No performance benefeit, and its blocking flow to the radiator for the intercooler and the AC condenser. The stock intake is better than that.
