QTRMILE Member 51 Member For: 20y 2m 13d Posted 31/03/05 05:14 AM Share Posted 31/03/05 05:14 AM I spoke to a guy today who does the Edit etc... he said that alot of places are actually taking the SS Inductions CAI off, because they are not working as well as the $50 Bunnings home made one... They were actually seeing more of a gain with the standard snorkel and the home made 2nd CAI!!Exactly what turb06 said!

Posted 31/03/05 06:38 AM Share Posted 31/03/05 06:38 AM The guys are correct, the SS Indutions CAI is crap on the XR6T. A second CAI is a much more efficient and cheaper alternative.HERE is a link to my first one. The pics don't work (it's an old thread). I didn't use the XR8 snorkle but it's just as good with or without it. Its personal preference.Geea.
