What do you guys have and what do you think of your cold air induction system?

What do you guys think of the afe intake scoops?

I think the general consensus is that unless you're looking to increase induction noise, there aren't any gains to be spoken of with either of those modifications.

There might be dyno results that prove this wrong, however. Not sure.

I just want the flow of the cold air going to the turbo being consistent .

The stock factory CAI is good for over 400whp, how much do you have?

Everything stock dude. W.e it has. Like 290 hp

Leave it stock, if you really have to do something put a BMS drop-in filter element into the stock housing.

If you really start to mod & make power get someone's DCI
