getting frusturated

Because of the SAI ( which i will keep on) I can't have the full cold air intake,Header,Downpipe and now iam told the comp cams wont work on 08's. Does anybody have any ideas how to up the HP with out forced induction...Yes I know is more exspensive.thanks everyone

The K&N intake for the 2.2 has a nipple for the SAI tube. No one makes a header to replace the SAI manifold yet. You can still install a aftermarket DP -- but most likely get a SES/CEL from the HO2S2 sensor. You can also install a cat-back exhaust for increased performance.

just get a header and down pipe and a cai of your choice then order a tune from terifica to delete the sai from the computer. you can then install the header and cai without worryin bout the sai anymore.

Dont bother with the 2.4 TB, I've seen probably 15 threads stating that you wont get any extra power out of it.

goes into the exhaust mani but i dont think it will hurt the emissions at all. i may be wrong thou. 05-06's never had it and they pass emissions. either way once you go with a high flow cat you're pretty well gonna fail emission test.
