so its a 3 piece then the piece that connects from the pipe that goes into the intake manifold to the other pipe

 

so is anyone having problems with their CEL? before i install mine do i just need to make sure i unplug the battery? because i dont want to create any problems.. ive barely had my car for 3 months...thanks

 

never had a CEL..just disconnect the battery and after the install let the car idle for about 15 min or so..if you get a CEL make sure everything is hooked up right

 

i just installed mine about a week ago and love it. the installation took alot longer than i expected. prob bc i tried to do it by just taking the bumper off and pulling the wheel well plastic back all the way but once i took the wheel off it did go in,though still not easily. i was pretty worried about not doing somethign correctly and getting the CEL light but had no probs. definately disconnect the battery or atleast take the fuse out for the ECU.

 

disconnecting the battery just makes the ECU learn faster that all...if you dont it might take a couple of hundred miles for the ECU to ajust properly...its up to you...

i have the Injen Full cai....took about 20 mins to install only cause i did it before...if you follow the directions your fine...

even though its a little hard to install the Full cai might as well if your dropping over $200 on it...

 

the original pics of this post just make me laugh my @ss off... removing the front bumper clip... lol... did mine my just jacking up the driver's side front...take the wheel off and remove the inner wheel well front piece. done in 20 mins. flat. :D

 

exactly...the first time i did it..i didnt want to take the bumber off..so i just jacked the car..off comes the wheel even folding the inner wheel well in you can have enough room...

all depedn on who you are...if you wanna take everything apart thats fine

 

how many people disconnected there battery while installing the injen cai

 

after the intake was installed..disconnected the battery for a few mintues hooke it up let the car run for like 15 mins or so take it out for a spin..if you get the CEL..then you hooked someting up wrong

 

Was jus wondering if you can tell me if the CAI will save me some fuel.....Like I read some ppl say its loses TQ and stuff...is it a big deal if jus a normal driver or what would some of you suggest for me? thanks

 

Also forgot to ask if its legal In Cali...bcuz I was once pulled over by an anti Highway patrol and was asking if i had any Modified parts...she even made me pop open my hood..in the end I had a fix it for tint and no plate in front....Wack

 

there no reason for them to look underneath the hood unless they suspect something..no the cai wont save you fuel its the way you drive they will determine that....you will loose about 1-2 of torque nothing noticeable but you will noticed the gains aboce 2500 rpm and nice throttle response

 

nice diy, i'm lookin to install one myself, thanks.

 

i notcied a difference between the SRI and the Full CAI..some people say theres no difference but there is the CAI makes for high end power and better throttle response then the SRI..cause the SRI in pulling some warm air in.....the Full cai is like 2-4 more hp then the SRI......but as your ECU ajusted to it over a period of 100 miles or so youll srat to feel the difference

 

Just finished installing mine, the guide was so-so helpful, had to figure out how to remove the part other than the MAF on my own, and no tips on how to get the CAI piping through the fender.....word of the wise, install the piping backward, just take the wheel off and the splashguard and put the pipe up from under the wheel. Made all my paintwork go to all hell.

 

I just ordered an Injen for my 2010 and installed it as a SRI and there is no rubbing but my filter is blue, not red. It might be a slightly smaller filter as they may have changed the design after hearing customer feedback. Either way, no rubbing on no. SR2115P.

 

They may have redesigned it to be a little smaller.
I've had no problems with the replacement filter I use now. No way in hell I was going to pay Injen monster bucks for the exact same filter I found intown at a performance shop for less than half the price

 

they changed the filter to an dry amsoil filter that is why it is blue and not red

 

The blue Amsoil filter is nice and pretty much maintenance free. I hated re-oiling the K&N I used to have for a different car. I like the intake and did not pay too much for it. I found it super cheap at a somewhat popular website and got a different one to match it b/c I had already done business with them. It was easy, just like the install. Putting the CA pipe on this weekend if weather/time permit. So far, $$$ well spent. Next is exhaust if I can choose a good one for a decent price.

 

Has anyone found a fix for the broken bracket for the injen intake?

Maybe another point to mount the intake?

Id rather not have any sort of welding done or DI's thing.
